I am trying to piece together a family tree and to date my family is as far away as Perth Australia, New York and Switzerland. I am trying to see if there are any relatives to Phyllis Doreen Perkin (Nee Urch) born about 1930 in what was then Monmouthshire. I believe Phyllis was married to Frederick John Perkin about 1951. If there is anyone who can help drop me a line.
Cheers

Ahh ...

2 marriages for Urch and Moseley, so perhaps Alfred was Phyllis' cousin not brother.

Please accept my appology for not replying in the correct way. I hope this message gets to you all.
What you have done for me is fantastic. I will report back to you when I have more news on my family links.
Between you a gap of over 50 years has been closed and possibly the opening of a new link for me and my family.
Thanks again
Rob

Hi Rob,

I have only just found your inquiry so my apologies for the delay. I don't know if you found the details you wanted for Phyllis Urch born in 1930 in Newport Monmouthshire or Gwent as it is now called.
Phyllis Urch was my cousin and I have a lot of info on this Urch family and I can put you in touch with her brother.
Let me know if you still need info
