Bob - did you follow my advice in the post above?

Hi Tim, hope you read this. Florence's father was my great great grandfather.
I have many records of the Pollard family history, and Page family.
Please contact me. Yours Bob Bunce

Robert, click on Messages on the menu above and then click on Sent Messages.

You should be able to see the message (pm) you sent to Tim. If there is a green envelope icon to the left of the message he has not yet read it (bear in mind that it may take a while for someone to get round to opening a message, if at all). There is always the possibility that he is no longer active on this site in which case there is nothing further can be done to make contact.

Robert

GR do not respond to posts on threads



By putting (pm), I was intending to indicate that that is the shorthand that people on here use for the private messaging system.

Dear Genes Reunited, re' Tim Fairbairn, looking for Florence.
I am related to Tim, but cant contact him ? You suggested I click on his name through private messaging system (pm) I have sent a message, but not sure what you meant ( pm ) ? If there is any way you can help please let me know.
Thanking you Robert Bunce

Robert ................


This thread is 8 years old, it is very possible that neither Tim nor Pam still look on here, and GR does not notify people of new posts on threads.


Also, you have posted your private email address which is against the T&Cs of this site ........... and is also extremely unsafe as this site is not secure.

Please remove you email address by clicking on Edit in the same line as your name.


You should try to contact Tim by clicking on his name and sending him a message through the private messaging system (pm). GR will then notify him that there is a message waiting.

Providing that he still has the same email address that is on file with GR, then he will get the information.

You can only hope that is so.


I do not in fact think that Pam is connected to the family .............. she seems to be one of the member helpers who are the ones who help others on this site, not GR staff.

Tim & Pam, I am related to this Pollard family, please contact me

Pam this is great... many thanks... the female lodgers would fit with the fact that a great aunt told me that at the top of 5 Bradley Street was a separate flat used by the metropolitan police to place women who were on the wrong side of the law... actually my aunt intimated that these were well to do women who were pregnant but not married and they spent their last months of pregnancy in the top of this household with their maids!

Many thanks for this Pam...! I have actually made a mistake with the string... should read Florence Page nee Pollard!!!! Her father was Thomas Pollard the farrier and her mother was Mary Anne Potter of 5 Bradley Street
Tereza

This lady was my Great Grandmother and worked as a laundress in Lambeth and even worked as a stoker in the gas works at Lambeth in WWI. She then went on to work as a cook in an officer's club in the west end of London until around 1920-22 (could have been a club for Australian soldiers and may have been in Poland Street????) and then she went to work as a cook in Harefield I believe at the Australian Soldiers TB Sanatorium at Harefield Park. I have very scant information about her and little documentation. She died in the 70's in Hemel Hempstead and had lived with her daughter Lillian (Babs) for her remaining years. Not sure if anyone has come across her? Many thanks!
