My grandfather was Norman Todner Bainbridge who died in 1968 and I believe George Todner may be one of my ancestors on this side of the family. Just starting out on the family history search so I may be on the wrong line but would be interested to hear of any info which could either confirm or not. Many thanks for all those who take the time and trouble to make sites like this so useful and interesting to amatuers like myself. Well done and thank you again.
