Hi Adel
I’m desperately trying to find out what happened to my grandfather EDWARD RAYNER born 06/08/1898 in Hulme Manchester. Im doing this
for my dad who’s in his 80s and was placed in an orphanage from
birth in 1925 (Dr Rhodes home in the Chorlton Workhouse
M/cr, then Styal Cottage Homes in 1930). Until very recently my dad knew nothing of his family but I have managed
to trace his mother’s family (she died of
TB aged 25) and also his father who never married his mother.
Edward RAYNER married Jennie Reeson in 1920 in Salford and they had 2 children in 1921 and 1922.
It is rumoured that his wife Jennie then had a serious
accident with a tram and had brain damage. Edward then had 3 children
with my grandmother Clara Swain whilst unmarried
(presumably because he was still married to Jennie) in 1923,
1925 & 1926. Their first child was given to grandparents to
bring up, the second (my dad) was left in the Workhouse
nursery and the third died aged 4mths.
Then my grandmother died of TB aged 25.
We would so dearly like to know what happened to Edward
Rayner after this time. I cant find a death for him using the usual
internet searches and library and do not live in the M/cr area. I would
also like to know where he is buried if at all possible. I would also
like to know when Jennie died as I can’t find a death record for
her in the name Rayner or Reeson although
her son (now deceased) remembered being taken to a grave as a child in
the M/cr or Salford area.
I know this is a very long shot but I’ve tried everything else and
this is all very important to my dad.
Many thanks. Cathie Casper cathiecas@fsmail.net

was born on the 30th July 1931 in Fulham, London.

lost contact, and I am trying to find out if anyone has any memories of him and
also where was buried. I have visited the home, and someone remembered him. I
wrote later for more information, but sadly they did not reply. As he is one missing
link in my family tree, I would be grateful if you have any information on Peter.
Especially any photographs. Further details: His father was my uncle Fred
Chambers and I believe his mother (or step mother) was Ivy
(nee Goode) Chambers.They are both now deceased, but did live in the Carshalton

Hi Adel, I am trying to help a friend, which he has asked for. He lives in Brittany
& I live in Stoke-on-Trent. During his childhood he was an orphan at a place
called the Little Cottage orphanage, in Penkhull Stoke-on-Trent.
Only after he had long since left did he find out he had a
brother at the orphanage, who actually became a friend while he was there
- without either knowing. The building is still there but used for other ventures
now. A search of the Internet provided nothing. Visits to the local libraries,
police stations nothing either. Some of the locals have been very helpful regarding
the history of the place, but only about the building itself, not the orphans.
The local churches seem very reluctant to help. My friend Ken has happy memories of the place & is now trying to research his
unknown start in life. I am looking for records of the orphans who were there
from around 1948 - 1958. Can anyone out there help
me? Many thanks, Mike Walker sally.mowcop@virgin.net
Hi there, Don’t know if you can help but here goes. I was born on 3/9/1946, I was adopted at the age of 4.5
yrs from Nazareth House, wether it was Swansea or
Cardiff I do not know. My adopted family name is Martin,
I have some suspicion that my former family name was Wilson,
but it is only a distant and old hunch that could be wrong. How do I find out
my history. One reason is Medical, the other is a desire to know why I was placed
there in the first place. Can you help?? I live in Bedfordshire and have 2 sons
and a wife. Yours hopefully John R Martin johnmartin@ntlworld.com

out anything about it, or him? Many thanks, John

Missing relative I have an
uncle that lives in filey and I have been unable to trace him through search sites on the internet. As he is quite elderly (probably in late 70's) I
wondered if he could be a resident of one of your facilities in Filey. His name
is Malcolm Thomas. and he has 2
surviving brothers in England. One in Devon the other in West Midlands. My sister and I went to live in Canada in 1954, returned
for a visit in 1962 and have lost all contact since then. We are coming to England
for a tour and a visit to Bridlington where we lived
with my grandmother and uncle Malcolm. We would love
to be able to see him but don't seem to be able to trace him. His wife died quite
a few years ago so he could be on his own. We have contacted the Bridlington news
service and "Judy" says she will put something in the paper there to
see if we can locate old friends and relatives. We would appreciate any help you
may be able to provide. Thank you in advance Anne Lesnick a.lesnick@rogers.com
Hi Adel, I am doing some research into my mother's cousin
Major Edward Macey who disappeared in Cyprus in 1964, while serving with
the UN peacekeeping force. His Mother Alice

C/o Canon T J Kirkland Bsc, St Ovins, Clagmore Rd, Rustington,
Littlehampton.We are wondering if she was actually acquainted with Canon
Kirkland or was there an aged care facility at that address? Her son's
emergency address while in the Army was the same. We are also looking for Alice's
niece Eileen Alannah Bolton whose address in 1970 was 172
The Street, Clapham, when she was the informant on Alice's death certificate.
We would like to get in touch with her about family history details if anyone
knows where she is living now. Kind regards, Annette Weckert nettdragon@gmail.com
Hi, Further information received regarding Eileen Alannah
Bolton reveals about 10 years ago, she went to live with her daughter
Maureen who was a microbiologist, married with 2 children and lived in Scotland. Can anyone help with Maureen's married
name and location please? Searching for family information. Kind Regards, Annette

Dear Adel I wondered if you could help me please. I am researching my family
tree and am looking for a orphanage/care
home which was called Cottage Homes in 1926 in Norton Road, Stourbridge.
My mother-in-law lived there from an early age. I have found your web site and
note that Westfield Lodge is in Norton Road and wondered
if you might be able to tell me if you have access to any
history on the building. This may be a long shot but I thought it may have
been the orphanage before it became Westfield Lodge.I
apologise for this not being a 'work related' query but I am having great difficulty
locating the whereabouts of this home. I would really appreciate any help or information
you may have,but of course, if you are too busy please accept my apologies again
for any inconvenience caused.Regard Jenny.Jenny.buzzard@ukonline.co.uk

Dear Adel, I came across your website and thought you might be able to help me.
I am trying to locate my elderly aunt
Nellie Backhouse who, if she is still alive would be in her
early 90’s. Up until about 6 or 7 years ago she was living on her
own in a residential home or retirement village in Clacton,
Essex that apparently was run by the local council. My parents in New
Zealand corresponded with her regularly for many years but she eventually
found it too difficult to write and had to enlist the help of a neighbor when
replying. I understand that she moved on to a new locality but I don't know where.
We have had conflicting reports as to whether she is still living. If she has
died it would be good to know when this occurred and where she is buried. Aunty
Nellie was my mother's youngest sister. She never married. The Clacton
address where she was living is; 61 Holly Court, 200 Old Road, London Road Clacton,
Essex CO 151 HX Living in Adelaide, South Australia does make this type
of search rather difficult. I would be most grateful if you could help in any
way. My e-mail address is; sandivince@optusnet.com.au Yours sincerely Ian Vince
Dear Adel, I am writing on behalf on my Italian cousin,
Felicita Pelosi who lives for most of the year in
the moutain village of Picinisco, near Frosinone in Italy.
My father (Felicita's uncle) was Italian
and came from Picinisco. We are tring to obtain contact details for Maria
Corelli [Mary Corell MacDonald Gill] the author of a short story entitled "In
Love and War." Apparently Maria lived for some time in Picinisco in a house currently
occupied by one of our cousins, and then spent the duration of the second
world war hiding from the Germany army in a cave somewhere near the village.
I understand that Maria now lives in West Wittering and
so am writing to your contact address to see if I can obtain a reply. My cousin
would like an address for Maria so that she can write directly to her . Felicita's
interests include the local history of Picnisco, which has had its fair
share of interesting English literary visitors in the past. Thanking you in advance. jcrolla@dial.pipex.com Yours sincerely, Dr John A Crolla
hello, perhaps some one in the Lowestoft area of the
John Turner House can help me. I am looking for the Sissons family who managed (i believe) the House in Lowestoft back around the dates of 1987-1989 . They had
a daughter Caroline , who married an American
Serviceman named Kirby Albright. they had a daughter and moved to the US,
after his tour in the UK was done. Kirby was my best friend while I was over
in the UK . I was stationed with him at RAF Bentwaters ,
near Ipswich. I guess we drifted apart after we got out of the services...
A few years ago , i ran into another mutual friend of Kirbys and he said that Kirby
developed cancer and passed on to the Lord, and his wife and daughter returned
to the UK, presumably the Lowestoft area.I would like to find/talk to Caroline,
his widow, to express my condolences and remember good times we had.
Any member of the Sissons family who anyone can get
me in touch with would be much appreciated, i believe she also had a younger sister
. Caroline would be about 34-36 right now. Thank
you in advance for any assistance you may give me. Phone in US is 920-326-5701, address
514 Second St. Randolph WI 53956-1014
e mail dpickhardt27@yahoo.com Thank
you again, my time in the UK and my time with Kirby and his family was the best
experience of my life.
