Hi, I posted a help message earlier but I have more info now, so I'm hoping someone may be able to help!
My uncles 70th Birthday is this month & I have been trying to find a living family member on his fathers side- his father died before he was born & he knows nothing about him.
So I have his fathers name- William Ernest Clegg .died 1933.
William had a brother: Charles Alfred Clegg .born 1897
and a sister: Sarah Florence Clegg. born 1895 ( but seems to have gone by Florence)
They lived at 22 oswald St Accrington in the early 1900's
Then I have 19 West Crescent Accrington in the 1930's for William.
I don't know where to go from here- there are no marriage records online for Accrington, so I can't find if charles or Florence married &/or had children that I might trace.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
My uncle is also called William Ernest ( but goes by Bill ) born 1934.
His mother (my nan) was Dorothy Marsden (then married Bill Pearson).
Thanks for taking the time to read this,
Janine.
