Please could anyone help, I am trying to trace a Rose Harvey (married name) she was born in Acton in 1858. She had a daughter Louisa Harvey who was born in 1883 in Isleworth Middx. On the 1901 census they were living in Norton Street, Uxbridge and they had a George Sims as a lodger, he was born in 1877/8 and was from Somerset. My reason for asking is that Rose Meads (my Grandmother) was living with the Harvey family at the time of the census, she was aged 2 years and listed as a niece of Rose Harvey. My Grandmother's mother died just before she was 2 years old, she was an Ellen Meads formerly Biggs. I have tried to find out the connection between my Grandmother and her Aunt but as I only know her married name of Harvey I cannot get any further. Hope some one can help, Many thanks

Hi,

I will have to go back and look at dates, but my Great Grandmother was a Rose Harvey (my name as well!)

My father, Edwin Harvey was born in Greenwich in 1909 son of Bertram Harvey. The names do seem rather a coincidence.

Best wishes,

Rose Harvey (nee Harvey)
