	How did you work back to them? Have you looked in 'search all trees' to find if anyone else on GR is researching them? Have you put your tree on here? How much research have you done? Have you verified the full given names - and birth years - for the children?

	I am looking for the descendants of Ada b1889,William b1891,Harry b1895 and George Cox b1898. Their parents were William Cox and Eleanor Powling. and they were born in Poplar. Unfortunately there are many people with these names and birth dates so its difficult to know which person is the right one. Any info would be welcome.
