Hi there,

I am a Cousin of yours !! I am Marian Young , nee Willson.

What a lovely surprise !!

I have only been on line for a month, and I had been searching for details of my Gt. Grandmother ," Rose Gell" nee "Bridson", when I discovered your enquiry.

My Grandmother was "Catherine Annie Willson" nee "Gell", your Granddads' sister, b. Ballyagyr Cottage , German, I.O.M. 14 mch 1909 ,( the same place your Granddad was born ).

I live in the Isle of Man , and have been researching my family tree for 6 years. I have a few records and some copies of certificates that you will no doubt be interested in.

All that my remaining family know about "Joe" ; other than his birth details , is that he married "Betty" and "went to live in Scotland "?? My late Gran used to write to him at one time , but over the years all contact has been lost.

I am still in a state of shock, but I am looking foreword excitedly to hearing from you . Please ring me at home on 01624-622043 .

Kindest regards,

Marian.
