Hi it’s the first time I’ve used the board sorry I didn’t put any info on. I was looking for hints to do it myself. But any help would be great. I am mainly struggling with Fanny Cresswell (nee Potter)

Welcome to the boards Abigail.
If you'd like to give us some details we may be able to help - "we" are other GR members.
What were their names. Their ages when you last have them sighted. Where were they last living that you know of. The more you can tell us the better.
If you have them on a census and you can copy and paste that to this thread that would help.
My gg grands were born early 1800's, yours could be more than 100 years later. Records change in that time.
|
We can't help without some info
Names, years of birth ,area etc
What records of when last seen . I.e. Census . 1939 reg maybe. etc
|
what is his name and where did he live
|
I am trying to find some details of my great great grandparents death, I can't find anything on here or on GRO, or FREE Reg.org. can anyone recommend/help?
