Tedious the endless amounts of Scottish titles presently added why not address adding more into the libraries of the Manchester Evening News, Nottingham Post, Leicester Mercury,Sheffield Telegraph or South Wales Echo etc at the same time as adding virtually every Scottish title in existence

I am trying to find details of Frederick Taylor. born circ.1910 in manchester? His father was Joseph Taylor of Levenshulme, Manchester. He was the father of Stuart Douglas Frederick Taylor, born 1913 London. Frederick is supposed to have travelled to Africa in March 1956 and died there July 1971. He is named on Stuart's birth certificate but so far no trace of a marriage. Stuart's mother was Muriel Sarah Eliza Gorham nee Raker and lived in Hornsey, London. Legend is that Frederick's family wanted to care for Stuart on the understanding that Muriel gave up all rights to him which she refused to do.
