Thanks to both Christine and Susan for your time, I have ordered a marriage certificate so hopefully I will find out more details. Would like to know when he died though so I will continue my search - better get my eyes wiped though first and get on with some work before the boss comes in!

Emma if you look at www.lancashirebmd.org.uk you and look at Marriages there is one for John H Buck and Geraldine CONNOLLY in 1932. If you click on the reference to the right, it will take you to a partially completed application form to get the marriage certificate which will give you names of both fathers and occupations and addresses.

Emma The 1837 site covers 1837 to the present day so he should be on it Christine

Wow, that was quick, thanks! That is a bit too early as my Dad was born in 1945 and so we suspect my Grandfather to have been born around 1910 - 1920, he is not listed on the 1901 cenus.

Am looking for any information on JOHN BUCK who was my grandfather. He married my grandmother Geraldine CONNOLLY and it is thought they lived in Liverpool. They had 3 sons one of which is my father who was adopted at birth. John Buck died in the 1950's or so I am lead to believe and I was wondering if anyone could give me ANY advice on how to trace him - I don't know anything else about him, have never even seen a photo. THANKS
