Thanks Elizabeth, have sent another PM as I think you have given me the wrong generation, it was descendants of John Doe/Mary Kathleen Brodie that I was looking for. I can find no record of 2 of their children Jennifer and Jean (referred to as nieces in Mary K's sister's obituary and the ones I have found don't arrive until 1930 and 1935.

Don't suppose you have anything on the Street family of Loughton, Essex do you? Mid 19th century?

Thanks Elizabeth. Will PM in the next few days, bit tied up at present and need to get everything over to you clearly.

Hi Elizabeth,

A friend of mine is researching her family and is at a dead end, but there are rumours in the family that they may originally have been Romany gypsies. The name is Carley, and they seem to have been around Cornwall and Devon in the mid to late 1800's.

Any help would be very gratefully received, many thanks,

Sue

Thank you Elizabeth I will.

Hi Oldbean
Please either post or pm me the name/a rough date and area ,and I will take a look for you

Can you help with Sparkes family Essex please? I was given information recently by a family member that this side of the family are descended from Romany Gypsy. I would love to have affirmation of this if you have chance please.

Hello Greyghost
The Doe family are well known,my database covers all areas of the U.K/Ireland/Malta/Spain/Italy/U.S.A.
please p/m me with relevant details
Elizabeth :-) :-)

Hi Jan
What a good idea
Liz

Researching on behalf of friends, there is a tie in to the Doe's who would appear to be a gypsy family from the New Forest area. Do you have anything on Hampshire Doe's and could I PM you please as the request could involve living people?
Thanks

Hi Elizabeth.
This doesn't affect me personally, but I think it could do with being a 'permanent' thread at the top of the genealogy board, along with a few others.
Maybe you could contact Genes and ask about this? Otherwise it might get lost with all the other stuff.
What a fantastic resource!
Jan :-)
