Hi Jess My great grandfathers, fathers name was John. I am trying to work out if this Isaac is my great grandfather's uncle. I'm not sure but I think they are related because the names and places of birth are the same. Also this Isaac's wife was called Eliza - my grandmother's name. Anyway will look into this a bit more, thanks for your help.

add the info here Irene- its easier Hi Jess My great grandfather was called Isaac Ambrose and came from Hilgay. My grandmother''s name was Eliza, so I definitely think there is some connection. Isaac''s father was called John and born in Hilgay.
