Florence Fanny Cook (called Lolly) was born in Birmingham on 26/4/1917 but moved to the Oldham area of Manchester. She married and had two children. It is unlikely that she is still alive but I would like to trace any living relative.

Look in Search Trees to see if she is in anyone's tree.

You can then contact the tree holder to see what their connection is.

I can only see one possible child botn in Oldham, but many other Cross/Cook births around the country.
(The Oldham birth shows in free bmd in 1945

You need to get her marriage certificate to check it is the correct person, and the death certificate for further information, such as name of informant who could be a relative.

Many thanks for all of your help. I now have had total success in tracing this family line.
