was looking on 1891 for joshua as an easy name to spot, but sadly think this may be his death ?

Clive Report 5 Mar 2010 15:51

My nan Susan Sheppard born 1889 died 1969 claimed that she had eighteen brothers and sisters but with the help of another tree I could only find Charles Sheppard born 1876, Albert & Arthur Sheppard both born 1878. There parents were William Sheppard born 1854 and Eliza Dykes born 1853. Can anyone help or suggest where I can find any possible more siblings other than the named.

Regards

Clive & Jack
