Trying to find Avery Heron

ProfilePosted byOptionsPost Date

Julie Report 23 May 2008 23:40

I am trying to find my grandmother' father's family.
Her father was Avery Heron born in 1895 (although he is not listed in the 1901 census) and died in 1921 aged 26.
He married Mary Easby in 1917 in South Shields.
I am not sure how to trace his relatives. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Have you got his marriage cert for the name and occupation of his father?

Heather Report 23 May 2008 23:42

You could buy his marriage cert to Mary to get his fathers name and occupation

I had to go to bed GB - had been up the night before, waiting for OH to get back - his flight delayed and he got in 7.30 instead of 2.20 a.m. !!:(

And oh dear, where is Julie to take in all this fab info.

Given in and sent a pm.

Why members do not check their own threads is beyond me.

Hi... Julie here!
Appologies for not replying but I didn't realise GR did not tell me there were lots of fab replies waiting for me. Thanks Maureen for letting me know I had to check myself. I didn't really expect anyone to find anything so I'm absolutely delighted with all the info. It would explain why my grandma (who died 2 yrs ago) was also called Georgina.

Julie,

At least you have now got the information.

Good luck with your research.
