Thread: Looking for Mill

Happy New Year Everyone!I'm trying to find my Grandfather's family. Their surname was Mill, & originally the line came from Scotland (unfortunately I don't know at what point they came south).My grandfathers name was William Colin Mill, B. 1902 (April-June) in Warrington... just outside Liverpool I think. He married Winifred Annie Muggeridge in Maidstone Kent 1929(she was born in Woolwich 1907).Pity he wasn't born in 1901... his family name etc would have been on the 1901 census. I really can't wait for the next census to come on line!!!

Hi Kirst,

Do you have your Great Grandfathers name? if not, I think you need to apply for William Colin's birth certificate to enable you to go further back.(June Qtr 1902 Warrington 8C 229)

On checking for a marriage in Warrington prior to 1901, there was one with the following details on Free BM&D's,

for a William Charles Mill June Qtr 1901 Warrington 8C 324.

The birth certificate may identify if this was his father.

Cheers Nanna

I have a feeling that my Mum said something about the name Colin being included with every boy child (sometimes as a middle name... for some historic reason)...

I'll chat to the family before I go any further!!! but cheers for the help... who knows it may be him!
