Colin, thank you so much.

Can I just verify that Jesse Valentine Roope is female?

Colin, thank you again, I'm so thick at times. lol

The Roope's did finally come to live in Maidstone, Kent.

(Just a lit bit of info) lol

Susan, I'm a bit confused..... this Census says" children all born in Newington, Surrey" but I have Henry James born in Southwark, London?

Thank you Susan, I might give it a go, don't know whether I'll be any good at looking for anything on there , hope it's easy to follow as I'm not that clued up with computers lol

In case you are interested Sandra. Ancestry offer a two week trial period, they take your card details but as long as you cancel before the two weeks are up, they wont charge you. Well worth it! Susan.

Thank you so much everyone, it'll take me a while to sift through this lot.

Susan, I don't have Ancestry.

Colin....... what are you suggesting? lol
