I saw you posting re the Pickup genealogy and was wondering if there would be a connection with a George William Pickup from Manchester.This was my grandfather.He was in the British Army, serving in the Boer War an then came to Canada and served in the Canadian Army as a drill sergeant.He had a son Walter.
My grandfather was killed in the Halifax explosion in 1917.I do know that when one of my uncles served in the RCAF during WW2, he visited some relatives in Manchester, but I have not been able to track them down and he, of course, has passed away.
Any information you may have, would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Joan
