Susiebabes can you get a BC for a living rellie? Also the way i see it why should you stay away. this is your family too. and maybe the last time you have a chance to speak to him. Is there anyone in the family that can ask on your behalf, it would be so sad for him not to see all of his grandchildren one more time don't you think.... have you tried the dublin GRO? Best wishes MOE!

Hi, I have spent alot of time and money on various record site's including 1837Online and ancestry(.)com & ancestry(.)co(.)uk also Tracesmart to obtain wether my grandfather is still alive or passed away. He is alive but unfortunately not very well. My other relation's have told me to stay away so I can not get information from them. He was born in Six mile cross in Co.Tyrone and from a large family from his parent's were Vincent and Sarah McCollum (Nee Rogers) I do not know their date of birth's though. His names are Thomas James McCollum his D.O.B is 21/02/1921 all I am wanting is a refererence no. for a birth cert. Or if you could even point me down a new avenue Any help what so ever would be great Kind Regards Susie xx
