Thanks for this info, I acquired the info on my tree from a cousin of my husbands. From what he can remember is something about there being a gypsy in his family but not sure who this is or how to go about finding out. He has asked his parents for info but they are not coming forward with anything. We think they could be hiding something!!!!!!!

Thanks to all who have replied to my post. I will certainly look into all this info. Paula :-)

Not sure about Catherine being Thomas' 2nd wife.

Matilda was given the middle name of Rippeth (Catherine's surname) 3 years before Catherine married Thomas Harrison.

I would think Catherine was her mother.

It's something I'll have to look into :)

How do I find out about Gypsys in the family? Any help will be appreciated

Have you tried Google for Gypsy Family History ?
There are several sites

No I haven't thought about that. Will give it a go, thanks Mike.
