Disclaimer
These pages have been assembled from a variety of sources as we try to determine our ancestry. Every effort has been made to ensure accuracy, but we are not perfect and there may be errors in places. We hope these errors do not cause any embarrassment to family members or others. If any embarrassment has been caused then please accept our apologies and contact us to try and resolve it. Most of the people born after 1925 have been identified only as 'son' or 'daughter' to protect their privacy.
