Finding Grandad

Post by Blazingwheels »

Hello everybody,
Born and raised in Hampshire, I emigrated to Australia in 1970 and have lived here since.

For many years I've been researching my Father's family and Mother's (maternal) family, much of it on Ancestry, with a lot of success. Mother's Father is another matter. Granddad changed his name in 1897 and I've been unable to find his family.

Cheers, Kevin

KeV welcome to the forum
A person should have an opinion on everything, It becomes tact whether you reveal that opinion or not.
