Hi Georgia.
There are quite a number of Constance Ropers, and Albert Sealey's so you first of all need to talk to your Nanna.
When was she born. Has she got her birth certificate. If it is a full one it will give the full details of her parents. If it is the shortened version then you will need to order a full one. Cost £7, giving the details shown on the small one. Vol Numbers and page etc.,

With this information, hopefully, a further search can be made to make sure you get the correct connection. Nothing worse than getting down the wrong tree.

A search can be made backwards from your Nanna, or any older siblings of hers to get the right family. Ethel.

Hello, I'm struggling to find information on my great grandma Constance Roper. My Nanna knows very little not even her date of birth (anything from 1890- 1915). All I know is that she had two sisters, Lillian Roper and Maud Roper...she may have had more?! Also she went on to marry Bert Sealey and then had two children, Dorothy Sealey and Stanley Sealey. Constance died at a young age, and Bert not soon after. I know that Bert drowned in a lake. They lived in London for some time, but settled in Essex. Im trying to find the brothers and sisters of Constance and also Bert, and their parents. Can anyone help me? x
