Hi Pete,
sorry not been on much........ hubbies off for 3 weeks so my time is taken elsewhere at the mo.
Well Sampson certainly names his own father as Sampson on his marriage to Ellen Rogers, now whether this is just a name to save face I am unsure?
I haven't located Ellen after Sampson's death yet......... but will try now.

Hi Dee, Well you have found out a lot Sampson and Rose Wallis had Sampson their Son but could there have been more children? and Wow the will I would love to know where I could get a copy if you still can these days?? Once again thank you so much for your research Dee, Kind regard Pete

Hi Pete,
Just popped in to check my threads. Now Jonesey has a tip on the Tips Board regarding Wills............ I had a quick read and it seems that you maybe able to get a copy and not have to pay a ridiculous amount!! It may name his children also.......... now that would be a bonus!

I still couldn't get any further back with Sampson Snr, he may name his father as Sampson on his 2nd marriage, but I'll be blowed if I can see anything!!
All for now, Dee xx
