I'm back tracking to Cyril's father and contacting matching members, a long shot but worth a try.

Pete,

The third connection is to Parker Family Relations, which is you, and so you will not see it.

pardon me for commenting, it's a format I hadn't come across before for bmd's

Is the expressing of an opinion reserved for a select few?

It's not a strange format.... It's probably an ancestry record c&p using IE 11

I've just noticed this had been posted before, in a strange format, which is probably why I missed it

Hi,

My tree only comes up with two?.. The first connection is my cousins and the second is my daughters.

To find connections on here, the first thing you should do is to use GR's search facility, where you will find three members with Cyril's name in their trees

One of them is named Elizabeth

PMing a possible marriage, it is a late one but just possible, can't see another Elizabeth Halestrap, and it would be in the right area.

Hi,

My Dad's cousin married Cyril Halestrap in Hatfield in 1939. Cyril was KIA in 1945. I think they had one daughter who would be in her mid 70s now. If you may have a connection please PM me.
