Thread: Hello everyone

Hello, my name is Susan and I am trying to build my family tree and hope I can find some answers here. I have been searching for a while now but seem to have come to a grinding halt.

My father was William Frederick Foreman B 1904 D 1955 and I can't seem to see past him ??

thanks
Sue
