    Any info or tips on how to garner further info gratefully received.

    I realise this topic is pretty old but I have only just found the thread. William Mulvey was my Grandad and thanks to years of painstaking research I have discovered quite a lot about him, he died in 1918 so I didn't know him but I did know his wife, my Gran for a little while until she died. Can I help ?
