Find Ancestors

Hi Lesley,
Would you please look up the Clark family in London.
I am trying to trace a Thomas Clark b: 1871 or 1873 in London. He married my nan Mary Weston In 1916 & he was a widower at the time.
So if you could find when he was born & died & who his first wife was, that would be a big help in finding my family on my dad`s side, I am stuck on him.
Thank you
Theresa

hi Lesley, I'm trying to find my great great grandfather named Edward Bourne Bentley's wife Jessie's maiden name, sorry I dont even know her date of birth. He was born in 1926 in Ashbourne, Derbyshire,Kent then went to live in Broadwater, Sussex, England and then in Heene, Sussex. Thank you for kindly offering this help.

Take care.

Lesley

Hello again Lesley, Thanks. My gran was called Olive Laura Saunders born 1910 in watford. I think Sophia makes me sound rather posh so I don't mind at all lol. Thank you sophie x

Hi I have got to go out now, but will be back on later Any requests will be looked at when I come back on. Lesley :~)

SOPHIE Im sorry i called you Sophia before.....oops lol Right I will go and have another look for them. WHAT WAS YOUR GRANS NAME? Oh and YES some families moved around an awful lot in them days You wouldnt think they could afford to but somehow they did... thats why it can be so hard tracking them down lol. think they did it on purpose to make our life hell searching lol Lesley :~)

Hi Lesley, Thanks for looking I've just recieved my Grans birth Cert and wasn't even aware of their names until this morning. It states Arthur Saunders is the father and what I thinks says Florence Carrie Parsons as the mother. My garn wasn't born until 1910. But she had 12 sisters, some older, on her birth cert it states she was born at 3 Aldenham Road Watford. I've just been looking at 1881 and there is a Florence Carrie Parsons born 1854 in Watford, I kind of assumed families didn't move around like we do today, but Arthur Saunders was a railway labourer I don't know if this means he moved around alot. I don't know if I've been any help, Thankyou again Sophie x

SOPHIA Have you got any idea when/where Arthur was born? I have found a Violet on 1901 but the Parents names are different but she has some siblings with same names as you gave me. I cant find any Arthurs with Florence in 1901 in hertfordshire Lesley

Thanks Lesley, Regards Steve
