Fitzgerald (Sep 09 Green)
Does anybody know anything about the Fitzgerald family of Maurice Bolton and Louisa who are show in St John's Rd on the 1891 Census. He worked then for the Inland Revenue.

Tom Garforth (Sep 09 Red)
My paternal grandfather, Tom Garforth, emigrated to South Africa with his wife and two daughters, Aggie and Eva in the very early 1900's. After arriving he and his wife had a son, Wilfred. Wilfred married Sarie Coetzer (known as Eunice) and I am their only child. All of the above have passed away. Tragically, my wife, Denise Veronica (nee Robertson) died three weeks ago during rheumatic fever-reloated heart surgery, leaving me with my daughter, Michelle Garforth-Venter (a local wildlife TV presenter). I am searching for my paternal ancestry. I visited Bridlington in 1975 where "cousin" Donald and family lived, but have lost contact entirely with that branch of the family. I would appreciate receiving any related historical family information.

Nixon, Vashti (Jun 09 Green)
Looking for the family of Stephen Henry Nixon, a jeweller of Bridlington about 1900, married to Sarah Jane Alderson of Cotherstone, Teesdale. I think had 3 children, one named Vashti.

Smith/Jordan/Nag's Head (May 09 Red)
Seeking information on Abel Smith who married Mary Jordan on 2nd Dec 1823. I know they had one son, William, but I don't know whether there were any more. They kept the Nag's Head in Bridlington around 1840. Does anyone have any information about them or photos of the inn around that time?

Norah Twigg (Apr 09 Red)
I have a picture taken in front of Walls ice cream store, 1976 in Flamborough of Norah with the address is High Street. Can anyone give me information about her? Thank you.

Mortimer, Perkins, Hayward (Nov 08 Red)
Sarah Jane H. MORTIMER formerly Perkins born Hayward widow of Sam MORTIMER of Bradford died Bridlington March Q. 1906. Does anyone know if she had family there, where she may hve lived or where she is buried? Thank you.

Jenkinson/Gilson (Oct 08 Red)
I am looking for information relating to George Jenkinson and Ada Gilson. They were married in 1920. Prior to the marriage Ada had a daughter called Annie born 1912. I would welcome any information that you can let me have which would enable me to trace the family further.

Gilmour/Plumpton family (Jul 08 Red)
I recently bought a photo album in a charity shop in Bridlington with the name Mrs F Plumpton of 25A Promenade, Bridlington in it. My initial research shows this to be an Emily Gilmour who married a Fred Plumpton in Brid in 1915. She was born in 1889. Her father was a fisherman called William Gilmour who married in 1880. They lived in Garden Walk off Queen Street, Brid. I'm trying to work out who they all are in the photos and if Emily and Fred have any descendants. She had friends/sisters called Jennie, Elsie and Mabel and seems to have been very fond of dogs, one of whom was called William. I'd also like to find out where Emily and Fred are buried. The pictures appear to date from ca1910 to 1940. Any information would be very gratefully received.

John Priestman (May 08 Red)
Has anyone any information regarding a John Priestman who was born 1909 in Bridlington? He may have been a farmer or worked on a farm in Carnaby. He was married and had two children. He may have had connections with Darlington. He knew a lady named Florence McGovern in about 1928/1929. A family member would be very interested in any information and with the best of intentions would be keen to make contact with any decendant of John's. Thank you.

Stephenson or Wood (May 08 Red)
I am looking for any information on Kate Stephenson born on the 17th March 1907 in the Anvil Arms Public House in Old Newton. Took the married name Wood and had a son John William Wood.
