My Grandma was Martha Ellen Taylor born 1918 Ruthin, Wales. Her mothers maiden name was Pries or Price.

Martha Ellen married Joseph Rogerson in Calder West Riding in 1939. Josephs mothers maiden name was smith.

I have a marriage for Fuchsia smith to Joseph Rogerson whom I believe is Joseph Rogerson Senior. 1913 Warrington.

However, cannot find any birth, death or census data for Fuchsia. She would have been born in the late 1880's or 1890's I guess.

If anyone knows this family or can confirm or dismiss any of these facts I would be grateful.

My mother by the way was born in a Caravan the last generation in the family. I am so interested to find more, especially concerning the Smith or Pries/Price.

Finally, my mother, one sibling, Martha Ellen and Joseph are buried in Nantwich, with sub district Congleton.

Joseph and Martha had lots of kids that seemed to be born between Nantwich and Chester/ Tarvin. However, I have no evidence that all if any of this is fact. Many people have suggested bmd searches which I do regularly. I get information but unless somebody confirms this I have no concrete evidence. Any info will be helpful.

your dad was fred and your mum was bella.

no hassle just need some info.

cheers.

I'm trying to find any info on the Young's from Scotland and the north of England, my Grandma was Jane Young daughter to John Young and Margaret Cunningham.

I have traced lots of census, birth, marriage and death records for the Hartley's, Cunningham's Clark's, Knowell's, Sewell's, Gordon's and of course the Young's.

They were mostly Earthenware Dealers, Tinners or General Hawkers, but I would love some personal information on their live styles and traditions. My Grandma married "out" and other than a few family stories passed down to me from my mother, I know very little about that side of my family.

Is there anyone out there who would be able to point me in the right direction?

if this any help

My mother spoke a little Romani and left the family history on paper. 99% has turned up to be true and I have added pages and pages of

Family history . I have been able to do nothing on my Great grandfathers side. His name was John Watts born April 1825. He married Elizabeth vernon in 1859. They were both born in Derbyshire and remained there for generations.

His mothers first name is Mary. My mother told me his mum was a gypsy and spoke the Romani language mainly and English very little. She went be the name of Old Ag.

I can find no record of her. Most point to John's mum as Mary Joule, who married John Watts( a widower) in 1825 in Chapel en le Frith Derberyshire.

Old Ag remains a mistery but someone taught my mother the language and she insisted it came from his side of the family. I am trying to search gypsy records of any of the above names in that area in the time frame. 1790's -1830's.

Thanks you in advance for any help

Unfortunately, he is the only living descendant, and he doesn't know an awful lot about the family.

He told me my Grandma was Phyliss Nesling-Read and her brother was well known violinist Harcourt "Harkie" Nesling. My Grandma was married to Henry "Harry" Baldock. My Grandma's Mother was Gertrude Nesling-Read and her husband was Will Read.

Somewhere along the line there was a Mary Read, who took on the name through marriage.

If you know anything about this family please email me.

Thanks

Jenny - very kind, thanks. Sorry, still not used to navigating this site so only just seen your reply, after having just re-posted pretty much the same question. Oh well. Ta.

To proceed further you really need her maiden name.

I think you are going to have to order certificates or wait until more years are entered for Marriages.

I looked up you Nan's death certificate registration and these are the details

Name: Rosina Lilian Parker

Birth Date: 23 Apr 1913

Death Registration Month/Year: Jun 1988

Age at death (estimated): 75

Registration district: Torbay

Inferred County: Devon

Volume: 21

Page: 2277

So it is possible that her first names were the other way around but she preferred to use Lillian?

If you order the actual death certificate it might (and it is a long shot) have her maiden name,

You say she died in Devon, do you know if she was born there too or could she have travelled there?

I have searched for any Rosina L's born in 1913 and here are the lists (from Freebmd.com but it is not complete and I have only added the counties near to Devon for Lilian as there were too many to add here)

If any of the surnames are familiar then there is a possibility that it is her. Once you can order her birth certificate it will give you her full name and her fathers name and importantly her mother full name with her maiden name. From that you will be able to get her parents marriage details witch will give their fathers names and occupations and from that you should be able to find census records.

So you see it all comes down to being able to get your nan's Maiden name.

Good luck.

PS (hope this info helps, but just realised that if you don't know your nan's maiden name you can also order your parents -mother or father- birth certificate and it will give your nan's maiden name on that)
