I am trying to find information about my paternal Grandfather, George Albert(?) William Tomlinson ( K/A @ Bill or Billy). The family home was 25, Netherton Rd, Worksop, Notts. He was married to Amy (nee Evans, latterly Lancaster) and he had one daughter, Jessie (my mother) who now lives in Abergavenny, Wales. He was originally a coal miner He wrote a book called 'Coal Miner' and left mining to keep a pub in Lincoln ( Kings Head (?)) and in Wainfleet Licolnshire ( Royal Oak ). He had brothers whose names are Enoch Tomlinson k/a 'Knocker'(Married Mary McCarthy of Merthyr and was living in London, children's names Margaret Mary (Peggy) and Kathleen (Kath)), Arthur Tomlinson (married Phyllis Penny, Child, Jean (now Bower) and Cecil Tomlinson (married Lillian Woodford, children John James Francis Woodford and George Tomlinson) I believe there are substantial members of this family living in and around the London, Nottingham, Worksop and Sheffield areas. I would appreciate any help in gathering informatiuon relating to my Grandfather.
