Carol Fahey Posted May 30 Share Posted May 30 Hi. Thank you for accepting me to the group. I am doing some family research after doing a DNA test. I am looking for any details on William Gore who was born 23/10/1901. He married Alice Rylance 1925. He was adopted we think his birth name was Lyon. On his marriage certificate it says Father.....James Gore, 7 Carvers Yard, Prescot. Deceased. I am a very strong match with his grandson but we cannot find the link between the families. Any help would be gratefully received. Thank you. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RATTY Posted May 31 Share Posted May 31 I find a GRO birth reg for LYON, WILLIAM mother nee GORE GRO Reference: 1901 D Quarter in PRESCOT Volume 08B Page 723 If he was adopted as you think, it may have been from a sister of his father James Confusing. I couldn't find any marriages for Lyon and Gore. I will try to follow the siblings of James tomorrow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also William Lyon/Gore doesnt appear in census, unless James Lyon was his father aged 19 then died, not James Gore? I'll look at this more tomorrow. Nathaniel Lyon (1868-1943) - Find a Grave Memorial WWW.FINDAGRAVE.COM Born on 19 May 1868. Died in Mar 1943. Buried in Prescot, Merseyside, England.

RATTY Posted June 2 Share Posted June 2 Some of my data came from the following site in case it may be helpful in future Lancashire OnLine Parish Clerk Project - LAN-OPC.ORG.UK 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol Fahey Posted June 3 Author Share Posted June 3 I have been looking on there but it’s making sure i have the correct family. William Gore (Lyon) grandson is a 2nd DNA cousin with me, also he shares a match with my cousins on my fathers side. But also a low DNA on my maternal side. Yet looking at all the information it’s all linked to my mothers side! it will be this weekends project on finding the link. thank you for your help, it’s given me some leads. Sometimes it just needs another pair of eyes. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
