unity Report 6 Aug 2011 16:14

i think i will have to look very carefully at this as my gr gran is ellen barney who married john duckett and my gr gr gran was rhoda bella barney married to joseph hughs so the barneys that gb has could be my relations as well .i was one of the last to come off the forest as i am a member of the newforest gypies, but living in a house has taken all my history away, most people like myself can only find out by asking others and nearly all the old ones have died. so i have to do it this way but thanks to people like you i can find out more and piece it together.i also need to find out about the parents of the above, so its going to be hard.very kind regards uni :-D

Good spot

So "Ovas" James in 1881 could be Horace

Deaths Mar 1908 (>99%)


WILLETT Horace James 67 I. Wight 2b 439

at a guess I'd say the 'James' is significant!

Deaths Mar 1916 (>99%)

I am wondering if the children WERE Horace's, but Horace and Ann just did not marry till 1888 for some reason?

Rambling
