Find Ancestors

Hi James,

I am not at all connected and don't know that I will be able to help but am intrigued by this and wonder if I could possibly find anything?

Are you in touch with the other 4 children, or do you know what happened to them?

Do you have your adoption papers - do they show anything useful??

Hi readers, once again I bump this up in the hope today is the day a Smith or a Taylor will read my message and a huge bell will ring and the massive penny will drop. living in hope

regards

James

have you used the Search Trees tab at the top of this page to look for connections on this site

hate to be a doom merchant here James, but I think you are living in hope!!

I keep hoping. There must be a Smith or a Taylor out there who is looking for me???

Hi dear readers

Just bumping up my thread as I am still looking. Hope one day someone out there will recognise my information and respond. Until then, I remain hopeful

regards

I still hope that one day there will be a Smith or a Taylor out there who will know my Ellen Taylor nee Smith and be able to help me find my family. For those of you who have made helpful suggestions, please know that I am taking your advice, unless of course I have already done what you are suggesting.

I simply cannot believe that for all the members here who are a Smith or Tayor, or who know a Smith or a Taylor there is no one who can help me. I would imagine there must be someone in the Lewisham area where I was born who can help?

here's hoping

James

Thank you all for your kind emails. Please bear with me, as I am still learning how to best use this site. Meanwhile God willing a Smith or a Taylor will pick this up and it will mean something to them Oh how I would love to end this search. I fear my mother Ellen Taylor nee Smith may well no longer be with us, but I am ever hopeful that one day I will find my siblings.

all the best

James

Are there any Taylors or Smiths out there who know or are related to an Ellen Taylor Nee Smith? I am fairly certain Ellen was born between the 26th of March 1918 and the 25th March 1919. I know this because when I was born on the 25th March 1948 Ellen (my mother) was 29 years old.

I was her fifth child and the four other children were named Pauline, Irene, Ronnie (Ronald) and Sheila.

I was born in Lewisham Hospital - London and was adopted by Ivy and Jim Williamson and raised in Bow London E.3.

I was illegitimate so although I have my original birth certificate there is no father's name shown. I do not have an exact date of birth for Ellen, (wish that I did) nor details of her marriage to Mr Taylor. However, I do have a marriage cert that was researched for me along with a birth cert for a Pauline Jean Taylor. Due to the occupations of the husband on the marriage cert and of the father on Pauline's birth cert, these two certs are almost certainly connected to each other. BUT not necessarily connected to me. I just need to check this out somehow to prove they are or are not related to me for the purpose of my search or just to illeminate them.

This has been a 57 years search so far, but now with the Web and access to records, I think one day I will find them. If only there was someone in GR that is connected in someway, life would be so much easier.

Hoping someone can help.

regards
