  • WG Grace Family Link

    I was often told has a child that I had links to the great WG Grace (Cricketer). I have been looking for rater a while now and can not find any information that would say I am linked. As it was my dad who had told me, and now my dad is no longer with us. I do not know what to do and where to go to find out. Can anyone please help me?

    Can you give some indication of what you think the link might be? In the meantime, this profile of WG mentions and hyperlinks to several (cricketing) relations of his:

          I see from the link you sent me. He had a nephew called Henry Grace. I also have a Henry Grace within my family tree?

              How far have you gone back with your fathers family tree so far Tivvy? I would think the best thing to do is just to do your family tree and see where that takes you. Then worry about finding any possible link afterwards.
