Hello.

I was recommended wikiwirral by someone on ancestry. I need help in locating a few family members. Does anyone have any tips or their own experience in tracking family members? It would be great if someone here knows of them...but I know that’s a long shot! So, here’s the info I have on them:


I’m looking for the family/ any info of Thomas Williams and Edna M Sully (I’m not 100% on the maiden name). Both originally from Birkenhead, and moved to Southport after they married. Amy family would very much like to make contact with them. Any info would be greatly appreciated by both myself and my family.
Thanks for reading! X

What era did they marry and any rough ages?

Thomas born 1931, married 1953

could this be them

Yeah! That’s them. I’m trying to find them on behalf of my man. I think they would be in there 80’s now though...

I think you will have to bite the bullet and order marriage cert to see if you can get any information from it

Hanna, are you trying to trace them to where they might be living now ? If you know some of their childrens' names it might be possible to track them.

See if there is anyone here . There are a number of Edna M Williams listed one of them in Wirral. It's easier to find her name rather than Thomas Williams..

And do you know if Edna had any sisters, brothers or the names of her children. ? Might help.

Yes, myself and a few other relatives are trying to find where they are now. They want to make contact with them. I’ll try and find out the daughters names.
