Member Since: January 2005 Posts: 1 Send Message	Hi, I am trying to trace my Grandfather and his family. His name is William Cooke, he was born in Sunderland, England in 1905. He is the second youngest of 24 brothers and sisters. They lived in North Sunderland, Durham. Some of his brothers names are Ralph, Ted (Edward) and sister Kathy. He was 30 when he married my Great-Grandma at 16 years of age. My grandfather came to Australia at approx 12 years of age, but not with his parents. Any information would be appreciated.
