This week, we are focussing on your mother's father's mother.

If you want to take part, just start a new thread on this board and put your great-grandmother's name in the Title. If you don't know her name then put whatever you like in the title! Copy the following form and fill in the answers that you already have, then over the course of the next week you try to fill in the blanks and everyone else helps you. If you're lucky enough to have all the information already, then you can still post it up if you want, so that search engines can pick it up. Or use your partner's great-grandmother instead.

Can you fill in all of the following information about that person:

Name - "official" name and what they were known as
Date and place of birth
Names of parents
Date and place of baptism - if applicable
Details of each of his or her marriages - if any
Occupation(s) - if any
Military service - if any
Addresses where they lived
Date, place and cause of death
Date and place of burial / cremation.
Details of will / administration of their estate - if applicable
Memorial inscription - if any


Adoptive or step-great-grandparents welcome! If your great-grandparent is still alive then sit that week out or use your partner's great-grandparent instead.

This week can each person please just post up one thread - either your own great-grandparent or your partner's, as there were so many threads last week!

If you're lucky enough to have all the information already, then you can still post it up if you want, so that search engines can pick it up.
