"I have Fred Parrott, son of Fred Parrott, and Ernie Parrott, son of Ernie Parrott. Different parents, same grandparents. Then we have brother Major Parrott who married a Frankie. Then there is Frank Parrott, son of Frank Parrott, son of Frank Parrott, and a Frank Parrott son of George Parrott, and a Dick Parrott, son of Harry Parrott and all three have different parents but the same grandparents - but (obviously)(partially) different from Fred and Ernie's. It turns out that the middle Frank, has a brother-in-law called Frank Collier. He also has a nephew called James Parrott, and a brother called James Parrott, and a brother-in-law called James Collier. This James Collier is the son of James Collier who married first Ann Astbury, and then Alice Mary Astbury. James Collier Jr married a different Alice Mary. Their son Sid only had three grandparents as James and Alice were half first cousins." My Facebook post when first researching this family.
