After years of trying to trace my grandfather in Lancashire, I have recently found out he was born in Ireland. I think circa 1900 and I believe was born in Newtowards. I have been told he had a sister called Minnie (older than him we think) and possibly a brother called John who died in WW1.
Edward enlisted in WW1 in the Royal Irish Rifles and was we believe stationed in Holywood after the end of WW2. Does anyone know how I can trace him or find out more.
He married a lady called Nancy Wilkinson in circa 1922 in Lancaster (I am not sure how he got there) but returned to Ireland some time later and married my Grandmother Elizabeth Hamilton also from County Down (Hillsborough).
Any help much appreciated. |
