Hello, my name is Tracy and I am new at this!
I live in Canada and have a great interest in researching my British roots...both from England and Ireland! If anyone has helpful hints as to what to do first, I would really appreciate this!
Thank you!

You might also want to check with the name Denis spelled 2 N's as many things online are not always spelled the way we think it's spelled.

Hello Tracy and welcome to British-Genealogy
as this forum is just for introducing yourself I suggest you take a look around and post each of your queries in its own forum.

Denis Hugh Barker: born 1904 England - he could go in the Genealogy Beginners as you don't seem to have a birth place for him. He can always be moved later https://www.british-genealogy.com/for...logy-Beginners
David DeHaney: born 1877 Colchester Essex England This one could go in the Essex forum https://www.british-genealogy.com/for...nty-wide-forum
Alice May Victoria Ward : born 1878 Colchester Essex England - Also Essex
Ellen Agnes Cormack: born East Burmansey England 1900 The London forum? https://www.british-genealogy.com/for...don-main-forum
Thomas John Mayes : born 1895 Hammersmith England - Also London forum

In each post tell us all you do know about these people. Parents, wife, children where and when born, anything at all. Then our sleuths can set you on the journey back with your ancestors.
