Comments
I was interested in information about the Pool family. I have never heard that name but my father is Alfred Victor Swift and my aunts are Grace and Gwen Swift.
That is very interesting. Who was your mother and and is your Grandmother's name Emily? If we can confirm some facts we will be able to find out for sure if our family's are connected. I suspect they are due to 3 names matching. Did your family ever mention a brother to your father Alfred? His name was William "Hubert" Swift, if we have a family connection, and he died at the age of 22 years old in WW II? Please let me know what you have heard about family and maybe I can confirm those things and send you info on the Pool family.
Thanks.
