It's hard to just name one! :)) but I'll go with Priscilla Colyer, she lost her only Daughter yesterday (23rd Dec.1867) aged 4months to pneumonia, so I think she could well do with some loving support!, Bless her. :)

Eliza Mathews from Purton or Codrington, who hasn't got her fathers name on her marriage certificate, so I can't go any further with her! And if I could have two - Daisy Stinchcombe, my great grandmother's illegitimate daughter. I would love to know what happened to her. Lisa

Alfred Worboys born Hertford 1847/48 according to the census. You said your dad was dead when you married in 1869. If you lied you were the brother of James. Own up and tell the truth!

My great uncle Herbert who is on the 1901 Census with my grandmother (his sister), who my father vaguely remembers and who is on my great grandfather's death certificate. I don't know who you married, if you had children, when you died. Did you go to war? Tell me now, what did you do with your life!!! Susan

Without a doubt, it would have to be the marriage of Harry Smith and Martha Spencer between 1893 and 1903. Hubby would be over the moon:)) Chrissie xx

Not quite what you asked for Gwen, but my closed door is shut with william Hay,1803. cheltenham. Throughout half his life he gave himself a middle name, variously Arkley, Artely etc. Would love to know why - there must be a reason, but it doesn,t appear to be his mothers name or place of origin?. Or did he just do it to impress the girls) Happydays

From my father's side, I'd like to discover more about Robert Sygemay, who was recorded in Wakefield, Yorkshire in 1275 - don't know why! From my mother's side, I'd like to find out if her Stewart ancestors were related to Charles I ! (... or, more likely, Rod Stewart!) LOL CB >*|*<
