Hiya Elton you have given me very good news.My grandmother was born Mary Sampson in 1919,she never spoke of her family and she died in 1988 when i was young so i never got the chance to speak to her about it really.She always thought her maiden name was Igoe but she knew there was Sampson somewhere along the line!!She was infact illegitimate and Sampson was her mums name,and the name she was given at birth.I have found some of my great aunts by chance, getting death certs where they have been witness and it has gave me their married names!!.I also found Catherine on the 1881 census living with her sister and great niece so now i have two more names to research Thanks you Anna |

Thankyou very much for that.A lot of the names on the last one are names that have been passed down through the generations of the family.You have given me a lot more to work on Best Wishes Anna |
