BIRD / WICKER / DOWSETT / MERREDEW families of SRY
Created as a BK5 Register Report 31 July 2000 by Russ Merredew
NOTE: My convention is to assign the husband's surname to all unknown spouses; such being discovered, for
example, in the parents' identity in typical birth certificates where only the mother's given name is provided and
further research has not found her full identity.
Personal details are not provided for anyone under 100 years old for personal privacy. However bona fide
non-commercial family searchers may contact me at russ@merredew.com and I will provide such further
material as is available and appropriate. No commercial use may be made of this compilation on which I claim
copyright.
