I'm researching (unsuccessfully) my paternal line.
Ethel Goodison was born 1885 in Sheffield to John and Ellen (nee Atkin) in Sheffield.
Ethel married Walter Wildgoose, they had children Lily, Albert (Bert) and Minnie when they lived in Florence Place Heeley Sheffield.
Walter Wildgoose was killed in action in WW1.
Ethel had my father illegitimately in 1923 when she was widowed, she died 5 weeks later and my father was placed in the Sheffield Workhouse by a woman named Mrs. Lattimore (nee Cartledge) who lived at the same address. My father was taken from the workhouse by his father John H. Eaton and registered with a new name in order to be "adopted" by new parents.
Do any of these names ring any bells for anyone doing their family history research please?
Regards,
Marlene
