Peter,
I got your address off a message on the Morecambe site, you had helped a lady find her relative. I was wondering if you could help me?
My Grandfather, Herbert Reeve, was born in Wigan, England on July 25th, I think in 1920, (or 1925, or sometime in between). He left home at an early age (probably in his teens) and eventually ended up in the US, where he met my grandmother and decided to stay. At some point he lost all contact with his family, for reasons I don't know, he does not talk about his family much and it has taken many years and several school reports to find out what little information I do have. I know he had a younger bother and two sisters, so I believe there must be some living relatives somewhere, and I am interested in finding them.
This is what I know. My grandfather's father was Jack Reeve. His mothers name was either Margaret or Florence (nickname Flo) or some combination of the two names. Herbert was the oldest of 4 children, 2 boys and 2 girls, I'm not sure of the order of the 3 younger children or when they were born, but there names are: John, Ann, and Olga.
Unfortunately, this is all the information I have at this time and I am not sure of where to look or to contact to try and find more information, any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Christopher C. Reeve
