Hi Jacqui,
My great grandmother was Mary Ann Sarah Dowers, married to Charles Tanner. My grandfather was James Charles Tanner and the eldest of their fifteen children.
I am a bit behind with my entries on the tree and hence at the present do not have your father on them. Not to say his parents aren't there - please would you supply their names in order to see if they are there already in my tree for the Dowers. In addition, perhaps name your great grandparents etc. I do have the Elverys and Dowers on the tree going back quite a way ie Purser Dowers + Frances Atherington etc. What an interest bunch they all were. Look forward to hearing from you, Jose
