Hi Russ
I hope that you pick this up. I am so sorry to only be writing now, I have just logged back onto this message board! Since I did not get a reply for so many years, I had given up hope and have just not logged onto it. Anyway, I hope you get this.
I think that you and I must be of a similar generation. My Great Grandfather was Charles Parker and my Grandfather was John Parker (born Bristol 1896) and elder brother to Elsie May Parker. John Parker married Thersa Parsons in 1923, when she was 21 and they had six children. The youngest child of that marriage is Thirza Parker and she is my Mum!
I would love to see a photo of Elsie Parker please. My email address is
DSamuel1@outlook.com and my mother's email address is
thirzasamuel@gmail.com. She would love to hear from her cousin, Francis Yvonne?
I would be interested to know who your mother came to visit a few years ago. We live in Oxfordshire, England now, due to my father moving us here in the 1970's but the rest of the family is still in Bristol.
I am sure we have lots to talk about. Please get in touch.
Thanks
Debbie Samuel
