Re previous post:
I am looking for the parents of William J Teare (thanks Len!) he was born 1833 somewhere in the IOM and had the following children, not necessarily in order or accurate: Eleanor, Margaret, Anne, Edith, John James, Charles, Bertha, William, Frederick, Minnie, Horace, Ethel and Lilian (b.circa 1889) any info most gratefully recieved about this family.
My dad said that it was common for the first names William and John James to be given to each succeeding male child, therefore, william's father may be a JOHN James.
P.S. I blush to think of my earlier posts: I joined this list within weeks of getting the 'net' and jumped to many a wrong conclusion. Thanks for being nice!

P.P.S. It may be that William managed the coachworks in manchester, but I can't seem to find any records of him there, except the Bootle one in the earlier post.
