Hi Lady good to see you again. Don't let them work you to hard love.
Marilyn,Shelly, are you nearly ready for BB. It's on at nine tonight. Cant wait to see how this eviction thing is going to work out. I don't really care who goes,either Sunshine or the Lorraine Chase lookalike will suit me.

Well,

What I have is this ,
I have my dads birth cert and he was Frederick William BUNKER.b 1915 Plymouth.
His mother was Rose Bunker, she had him when she was 23yrs old on my dads birth cert a line is put through for his father.so ( legitimate) .
My gran would not reveal who his father was and took that secret to her grave.

Now in 1918 Rose married a Reginald John JOHNSON in Plymouth he was a Royal navy man.(stoker) he was 35yrs old and his father Reginald John JOHNSON (Deceased) (Mining engineer) on the marriage cert .in Plymouth.
My dad knows nothing about him because he hated him and was only told he was NOT his Dad when MY dad got married, he said he was horrible to me because I was not his child.

Now I have looked for this Reginald John JOHNSON and cannot find him anywhere.
But I am intrigued by who ever put that piece of paper in my Dads door yesterday ?? Nobody knows me where my dad lives, so they are not aware that I dabble in family history. and my dad has never told anyone anything like that ..........as he is 95yrs don't forget !!

So there you have Shelly ......I dont think you will get very far towards
Brucie ! LOL

Bruce Forsyth was born in Edmonton, North London, the son of Florence Ada (née Pocknell) and John Thomas Forsyth Johnson.[2] His family owned a car repair garage in Victoria Road, Edmonton, and as members of the Salvation Army his parents played brass instruments and his mother was a singer.[3] His great grandfather Joseph Forsyth Johnson (1840–1906) was a landscape architect who worked in Russia, Ireland and the United States. His great-great-great-great grandfather William Forsyth (1737–1804) was a founder of the Royal Horticultural Society and the namesake of the plant genus Forsythia
