Hi Mark, Your father's birth cert will give the names of his parents. You can use this information to find their marriage on the GRO index and send for the certificate which will give you the names of their fathers. Then you can send for their birth certs and so on back. You can look for people you have identified on the 1901 census and then the 1891 and the 1881. There is excellent advice in the Resource centre. Click on the button on the left. Gwynne

Hi Mark, Are any of the 1,298 Bonner's listed on this site yours?! That's how many come up when you type Bonner into the quick search box! If not, why not give some more info and perhaps someone might be able to help! Good Luck! Eleanor x
