Hello Margaret,
I am so sorry for taking so long to reply. I just saw your post. Thanks.
I am trying to find out what ever happened to my Grand fathers siblings.
My Grandfather was Harold Cocking, son of William Cocking and Ellen Pickering. His siblings were Walter who got married to Ellen Ashton and had two boys Walter Sydney and William Lionel. His other siblings were Charles Henry,Mary E.,Clara A.,Amy,Isaac E.,and William Arthur who married Jessie Maud Flanders and had one son Stanley.

Any information on any of the people mentioned would be great.

Thanks,
James
