Hi All,

I'm looking for info about the following people (my grandparents), "Percy Adolphus Trelawny Taylor (middle names possible wrong way round) & Elisabeth S. Burvill" These are my fathers parents and lived around south east kent.

The others are "Alfred Frederick Shrubb & Jessie M. Finch" these are my mothers parents and lived around the kent area too.

Not sure where Alfred or Jessie were from originally as Alfred was in the forces, between the wars.

Thanks in advance to anyone who can help

hello my name was Taylor before i married and am doing my family tree, and would you belive that my grandads uncle was/is called dolf,but i am told that was his english name,the other name i have is John grey hunter,I am not sure if john was his name as he was grown up when my grandad was born and he doesnt remember much about him,but my aunt Rose said that grey hunter was his romani name. ,now i dont know if this is the same one but we could be onto someting.my grandads dad was Wallace Taylor, and his wife was Emily( nee Price),his dad,my grandads grandad was called William Taylor and his granny was Ashella Price, i think both Emily and Ashella was born in Ireland, I am unsure of dates and ages.get back to me if these sound familiar.I can let you see my tree i think ,but i'd have to send you the details.
Valerierackly,
peace be with you.

May the peace of the LORD be with you always. God Bless

Thanks for that info valerierackly, there is so much info that I'm still getting hold of, and still am not sure about. So any help is greatly appreciated.

I have only recently found out that my parents (Francis wilfred Taylor & Sheila Margaret Shrubb) were married a couple of months before I was born. He was born in the 20's and she in 1935. She's now dead but I don't know about him.

Being 40+ years old and coming to this has been a bit of a surprise but I am also very proud over the information that I do have and of my roots (newly discovered)

Latcho dives, Hedge

The nav Trelawny as the middle nav given in your post might indicate that the person may have been born in Devon or Cornwall; the name being from that area, esp. Cornwall. Just a suggestion, as again, that may not say much.

Latcho drom,

hi matty regarding Ashella,i guess she was from about 1890, my grandad doesnt really remember,and when i seen him today he doesnt look like he'll be here more the a few weeks. And Ashella was his granny and he was born in the 1930's so if you said she was fourty years older than her,thats how i came up with about 1890.I dont know any think about her really,my grandad said she was probably born in ireland,and that Emily and her where related in someway they where from the same place in ireland,belfast on a camp, and had the same last name,and the both married into the same family.I was told has a child that we where related to the Lee's but i dont remember how.My grandad said they had to not stop in the same places when he was growing up because of the war.but he sdid tell me that he andhis uncle william shared there identity papers,so he cant be much older than my grandad.my aunt rose knows much more,she does tell me but i can remember all what she tellsme and if i try to write it down i feel a bit ladge having to get her to tell me again and again so i can write every thing she knows,plus not every-one wants every-body to know all about them.theres things thats been kept quiet.i dont know if i am bold enough to un-earth them.

May the peace of the LORD be with you always. God Bless

hi matty ,thanks for the reply.i do mean yes that my grat granny emily and her mother in law where both prices and they where relitives from the same family,may be extended but they'd have been the same people stopping on the same places as one and other.I know that Emily my grandads mam was born in Ireland,there family's though might have been there temporarilly because of the wars,my grandad says thats how they lived between here and ireland,some of the same members of the family where born in england some scotland and some of them in ireland too,my grandad said that just before he was born they had just come back over from ireland,they would yes of course gone into wales as well and they would have had children born there too,they where very big family's, iI think one of my great-grannys brothers was amos price and there was also a charlie price,I can remember that they where alive or died in the 1980's,if i ask a few more about them i will be able to find out more,but i've only been looking into it since earlier this year. I will go and see my grandad again in the next few days but i saw him yesterday and he wasnt good, so getting him to talk might be difficult. thank you .Valerieracky.

May the peace of the LORD be with you always. God Bless

Hiya , my grandmothers maiden name was Mary Taylor, her married name was Stuart.
My grandmothers fathers name, (my great-grandad) was william (Dugging) Taylor & his wife was Mary Taylor & we used to call her Nanny Poll.
My Great-grandparents on the Taylor side had 10 kids, my grandmother,(Mary)being one of them,(the children).
i believe my great-grandad was born in the Bradford area (but not 100% sure) but ended up living in Brockley in SE London.
I also believe that there was a name change within the family, that the name before Taylor was either spanish or italian.
I wonder wheather you can help me ???? !!!!

hello rubyzzz, I've not been online so i never seen your post till now. but my maiden names taylor and my grandads uncle was a william taylor. but i dont know much about him as my grandads died and in the last few years he got a bit confused. But was your williams old dad called ben or holiday. my grandads grandad was holiday, and there was a lload of brothers and sister. do you have a genes reunited site. I have and i could let you have what bits i have if you need them. Its very possible your relitive is one of mine. what year was he born. I have one in my tree that was born about 1921, my grandad and him used to go out working together when my grandad was a child, they used to share there identity card thing my grandad used to tell me.

May the peace of the LORD be with you always. God Bless
