Start by looking at freebmd, and getting some factual info about forenames and birth years.

Then........................look under the 'search' button, at 'search all trees'...............

You can't hope to find living relatives without first finding accurate info about their antecedents

Michael, to reply on here type in box below and click on 'submit'. Are we definitely talking long-dead ancestors? Your PM sort of implies you are talking about living people.
Don't put address if that is so!

Michael, welcome to the boards.
If you are going to have any success on here you need to do things a bit differently. Firstly, it's almost certain nobody related to you will see this. And the statement is too general - there are probably lots of people called Cole living in Croydon in the 1900s who aren't related to your family. So you must narrow it down.
I assume you have some full names and birth years? If so, find 'search all trees' (in search box above right) and look for matches with other members.
