Still 'on the case' Susan but nothing fits!

That Alice born in Essex looks a possible but I have followed it backwards and forwards and it still doesn't connect.

She does also have a Lucy who you mention, and her son Charles is a Horseman !! ?? - Something not quite right though.

Will keep at it,

Thanks Dea i am snookered with this i have traced that family i even sent for one of the sons birth certs but it came back wrong father only thing i can think of is they were travellers with my nan being born ib a van . Why dont we ask when we are younger i am going to make sure my children know everything

Does the name 'Snape' attach anywhere?

Dea x

I have never heard of a snape but who knows my nan seemed to call herself what she liked

hi dea it might i have no recollection of that name but my nanwent under many names so anything is possible why

Don't ask !! - my head is spinning !

It was just something I saw when I was chasing everybody backwards and forwards on census's - I seem to remember a 'Snape' somewhere - then I came across a marriage of an Emmalia Snape to a Smith - probably totally unconnected but there are not too many Emmalia's about !

I couldn't refind the first Snape though - I will have to back-track again.

Don't worry about it - probably a total 'red herring' but I will see if I can re-trace my steps and locate it again.

I KNow that is why i am sure it is her on the 1901 census in cannock and i vaguely rember my mum saying she lived in cannock at some time but i think she called herself by whatever she liked best at the time . Please dont get yourself stressed with this i am really grateful to you

I am having to go now but will be back tomorrow thanks Dea

Don't worry - I don't get 'stressed' - just 'frustrated' - when I KNOW something is there to connect but I can't just find it yet!

I will see what I can come up with over the next few days.

thanks Dea Good luck

HI Everyone . Hope you dont mind but I am asking for help on this one again. I have tried the electoral roll in Accrington where she lived in 1909 to see who she was living with and that might give me a clue but guess what was lost in a fire? I have evem mailed Nottinham to see if anyone can find them on a census but they cant find anything about them . Any clues anuone
