Thank you - yes I have contacted many people over the years. Many are pleased to hear from a distant family member but I have been blanked by some or told they are not interested in the slightest. Cheers

One of the trees shows Lucille as having 2 children with Thomas, and this 2nd marriage

Have contacted a few people and done a full google search. Many thanks for your help.

U.S. Public Records Index, 1950-1993, Volume 1

Jane M Frankland 20 Aug 1919 51 Chase Ave, Lowell, MA, 01854-1405 (1996)
Thomas H Frankland 51 Chase Ave, Lowell, MA, 01854-1405 (1996)

No other Frankland's at the same address or, for that matter, in Lowell in that data base. Of course, if they did have children they could have moved away.

Have you tried searching all member trees - top right under search - or contacting the Ancestry tree owner?

Its a combintaion of laws and whats available on the internet! Sometimes you can pick up other people with the same surname living at the same address.

The above named gentleman the son of James Frankland and Ada Medlock. Harry was born in Rawtenstall, England but records on Ancestry show he died in America in 1970. I believe he married Mary Holt and had a son Thomas 1914-2001. Any further details to make contact with living relatives would be most grateful. Thank you
