I'm trying to find a record of the birth of my great nan her name is rosina loveridge and she was a romany traveller, so i'm not sure if she was registered. I think she was married to george davis, i do know this was her partner my great grandad. They had a son charles smith born 21/11/1917 my grandad and he was registered. How do I go about finding out this information as they moved about a lot, I think she was born around 1890-1895. She also had 16 other children, but thats another thread. Any help would be gratefully received as i'm new to all this.

Barbara On the 1901 census there are 2 entries for Rosina Loveridge. 1. Rosina Loveridge age 6 born Somerset Civil Parish Kingston Seymour. 2. Rosina Loveridge age 15 born London Chelsea Civil Parish Paddington. There is also a site I believe for Romany's But I cannot remember what it is called, maybe you could just time Romany genealogy in google. Sorry I cannot help more. Good Luck Pat
