Dennis Grainger

[edit]

Hi there, thanks for the message. I'm getting slughtly confused so apologies in advance - so Dennis Grainger had a brother called Jack Grainger, a cousin called Colin Grainger, and another cousin called Edwin Holliday? But Edwin and Colin weren't cousins? GiantSnowman 19:34, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

So Jack Grainger the footballer wasn't your father's brother? GiantSnowman 20:08, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for clarifying, the article on your father has been changed! GiantSnowman 20:40, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
But Edwin being Dennis' cousin is confirmed by a Robin Grainger on this site... GiantSnowman 09:12, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Wikipedia relies on reliable sources to verify information. We have a source - this one - which confirms (citing Robin Grainger) that Dennis and Edwin were cousins. GiantSnowman 09:30, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
