At least he has you in his corner and will know his family really cared about himoh so true pete...the saddest thing for me was that little harry was poorly and his parents just could not get to him or attend his funeral..however he is not alone now and will be visited as often as we can

yes thats true pete...just wished our dad was still here so that i could tell him his brother had been found but as you say the next generation knows and its better late than never....good luck with your future searches...At least he has you in his corner and will know his family really cared about him
Yes I just keep thinking I should have asked more questions when my parents were still with us, my uncle Ron was only twenty eight when he died , and lived opposite Witton cemetery so my first searches were there , then most of the Elliotts were christened at st James Handsworth and a lot of family came from Aston Manor , so I never thought to check Handsworth Cemetery.Further more I didn’t know he was married so now I have other searches on my family tree,will keep you postedyes thats true pete...just wished our dad was still here so that i could tell him his brother had been found but as you say the next generation knows and its better late than never....good luck with your future searches...
