rachyjan Posted December 28, 2004 Author Share Posted December 28, 2004 Thank you for the swift email. I dont understand as I have Elsie Bray formely Skillington s Birth Certification her address was 58 Alfred Rd Sheffield ... Rose could be one of her relative? because of Skillington? both on same road... Do you think she s still working there as Grocer on 111 Alfred Rd? Will she know Elsie if you live near Rose, Could you please pop in and ask? I live about 100 miles away. Thank you for your help ....

rachyjan Posted December 30, 2004 Author Share Posted December 30, 2004 Originally posted by extaxman She is still there in my 1954 Kelly's directory. Thank you for let me know about Elsie Bray.... She is still there? Do you mean she s still alive...I have never see her and my late mother as well. I have been fostered by Preston Parent all my life there s so much to tell you. So Are you sure that she s still at the address of 58 Alfred Rd? I was told that the property has been gone! What is Kelly s Directory? She had a daughter Patricia Crossland Maiden Bray my mother. I am trying to trace Elsie my grandmother Im sure she dont know that she has me as a grand daughter... there are 2 more grand son and daughters of hers in Preston.. she know nothing about us because my late mother left her family and never went back to see her family again. My other half brothers and sister are look for Elsie Bray too, we all never see her and her family or my mother s family at all... We also look for Crossland family.. Patricia married to Crossland around 1962 .... left him 1964... Hope to hear from you again soon. Janice Crossland x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
