Hi, I have just started looking for my family. Patrick Faragher was my great grandfather. His son Thomas Harold was my grandfather and his son Tomas Horatio was my father. Unfortunately my mother and father split up just after I was born and I have never even seen a photograph of my father, so if anyone can help with any information or photos I would be really grateful. I found out that Thomas Horatio (my father) died in 1992. I feel I am clutching at straws at the moment so any kind of help will be appreciated.
 
i have looked for patrick faragher on the 1911 but he had died in 1907 aged 37 yrs.

his wife and some of the children were living icknield st. back 32 . no. 10 waverley avenue, bham

mary faragher widow charwoman 39 , william 19, m. elizabeth 12, L C faragher 7 and m. faragher 5.

then i searched for thomas and richard faragher and found them both at the roman catholic reformatory school in yorkshire.

Hi Angpev

I found out that Thomas Horatio (my father) died in 1992.

I looked in the death register but cannot find any with that middle name, it would have been interesting to see if it was family who registered the death, the only one i found is this --

Name:Thomas Farragher
Birth Date:23 Oct 1915
Death Registration Month/Year:Jul 1992
Age at death (estimated):76
Registration district:Birmingham
Inferred County:Warwickshire
Volume:32 Page:356

Hi Bren, Thanks so much for showing an interest, yes I believe the one you found is my father. I am really new to this, where would I look to see who registered his death? Also I have looked and looked and can only find his birth, marriage to my mom in 1952 and his death, I cant anything to say where he was or what he did throughout his life, any idea's. Once again many thanks Angela

WOW!! this is amazing where on earth did you find all this information. Thanks so much. Do you know of anywhere I could look to find a photograph of my father as none of my remaining family have any that I am aware of?
 
if only i did i would love to find a photo for you! there must have been some wedding photos in 1952 surely? could be school photos as well if you can find out where he went to school. sorry i dont know how to help you anymore. lets hope someone may remember the family but its a long shot! all the best, shera

Thanks so much for your help anyway. My mother and father (Thomas H Faragher) where married at Birmingham register office in March 1952. I believe they split up just after I was born in 1955. I think the Thomas Faragher you mentioned previously as being in Rowton House in 1955 may have been him ( i find this so sad) . Can you point me in the right direction as to where I may find where he is buried? I am totally new to this and really dont know where to start.
