Tina has Dennis Lonsdale in her tree, which may account for the discrepancy in names...... worth waiting to see if Dennis A Lonsdale is who is beng looked for i think, marriage to Simpson but as likely to still be living i won't add it here.

Have you tried the phone book?

Or www.192.com?

Have you ever had contact with any of your aunts and uncles?

Have you looked for possible marriages etc for them on the freebmd site?

Hi Jacqueline.

I thank you for all your help. I will go to the web sites you have mentioned and have a try at them.

I have not thought of the phone book so I will look on line to see if I can get to look at the phone books for the area.

I was born in Wales but now live in Scunthorpe.

I have lost touch with all of my Father's family.

As most people I know are not in the phonebook, Electoral roll maybe better

this site is free http://www.freeelectoralroll.co.uk/

it does not give the years but if you google the persons name followed by 192.com you will get part of a postcode along with the years there, which could help if they have moved in the last 30 years
