Grandmother sought
I AM researching my grandmother, Mary Jane Horner, who was born in Cawood/Selby in 1880 and later taken in by the William and Hannah Darnton family, according to the 1881 census.
If anyone has information on her early life could they please email me at johnthesailor1@bigpond.com
She married my grandfather, Edward Gorham, in South Africa in 1909 and then moved back to London, where she started a family.
I do not have her birth date or place, so am looking to confirm her details. Perhaps a member of this 1880 Darnton family could assist me.
John Gorham, Perth, Western Australia.
