Hi Jamie

Thank you for your reply to my message - my message was sent 7 years ago - I had forgotten all about it!

I've traced about 19 long lost cousins now as a result of that first early message posted in 2002!

If you subscribe to Ancestry.com and pay for it you will see lots of family photos that two of my long lost found 2nd cousins have compiled. It's fascinating to see what our ancestors used to look like!

There are lots of Harvey, Timothy, Thomas, James Hilliers about, so its best to start with Date of birth and birthplace which eliminates a lot of the Hilliers from our direct family tree of ancestors.

My great grandfather was Harvey Hillier born 1872 in Battersea, South London - died 1931 - was married to Annie Hettie Smith.

There's lot more information but it turned out to be a very long and huge family tree!

This information should be the start for you and if you need to know anymore, please give me dob and birthplace of your Harvey Hillier - it's possible that we may be related but until we both have the same dates and it tallies then it could lead to discovering more long lost rellies!

Janice Trim (nee Hillier - great granddaughter of Harvey Hillier b1872.
