One of my brick walls is Isabella Diston -widowed-remaried George Eben Roberts - got him on 1901 - with her and her children - also a Son obviously his - George Roberts but cannot find previous mariage for him. George Eben Roberts born 1837 possible Ireland George Roberts (Son) I think 1860 Durham.

Have you tried the search box at the top of the page? If you type in Diston, there are 335 names on Genes, and 6884 Irwins. Kath. x
