Madmag thank's for all of that, I do not know much about my mum, I was talking to my sister this week end that's were the imfo came from, we were not told anything about family on mum's side only that she had a brother David and he went with his dad when thier perant's split up.
so all of this is new to me, and sorry but my mum died a few years back.
if I book mark this can I come back to it ?
thanks penny.

Not into the full swing yet. Maybe repeating things.

Penny's mum is Robins. Mum's brother David, 3 years younger. Both the children of Mr Robins and Ms Dudden.

Robins/Dudden marriage as Rose has posted, Jessie A and Edward W.C.

Penny, unless you know different (i.e. have some evidence), I suggest that Rose is right on that so far. Jessie's husband might have been known to his family as George, but it doesn't seem that was his birth name from the marriage that she has found.

Jessie doesn't seem to have been recorded as Jessica. She is Jessie Augusta. Maybe her ancestors were Scottish, cos Jessie is a Scottish alternative for Janet, and a name in it's own right.

The birth for Jessie has mmn Snock on Ancestry - ever wrong!

Henrietta Snook married John J H F Dudden, Shepton Mallet 1914 as per mgnv's find. No, Rose, I'm not seeing two marriages. What was your other one?

Agree all mgnv's uncles and aunts for your mum. Sound's like you don't know much about her, so you might find this info new to you.

I'm not finding any marriage to a Jessica Dudley (or any other spelling) and a George Robins.

I think what we have found is correct.

You could determine the correct maiden name of your mother from her birth certificate. I would strongly suggest you purchase that if your mum has not got it.

We don't "discover" our ancestors' names, we research and prove it. Too many of us have listened to relatives who have got it wrong.

Hope you do well in your research.

Best wishes
