I take it you are looking for your mothers side who came down from Ernie Pomfret and Doris Walker. Their three daughters Marjorie, Dorothy and Maureen all married at St Peter and Paul Rishton but I,m sure you know that. You say your grandad came from Blackburn, unfortunately there were 5 Ernest Pomfrets in Blackburn at the same time, however, I suggest that your Ernest was born in Blackburn west in 1907 and had a sister Hilda born 1909. If you were to obtain his marriage certificate it would confirm his address, his fathers name and occupation and his age. He was married in Blackburn in 1931. When you have this info. the rest should be plain sailing. If you know when he died and how old he was it will help to confirm his birth date. Let me know when you have the info if you would like some help. Good luck, Bryan.
