Title: Laura BOWER - Sheffield
Post by: Graitney on Tuesday 25 July 06 16:03 BST (UK)

This is a real long shot on my part but.........Does anyone have any links into BOWER's in Sheffield.

I have a Laura BOWER, b. Q1 (Jan-Mar) 1904, Sheffield. Died (in childbirth) as Laura FARNSWORTH, Q2 (Apr-June) 1925, Sheffield.

Spouse - Colin Neil  FARNSWORTH, married Q3 (Jul-Sept), Sheffield.

Child Joan Farnsworth, b. Q2 (Apr-June) 1925, Sheffield. May have been raised as Joan BOWER.......??

I am really keen to establish who Laura's parents were & what happened to Joan?

Thanks very much & all help however small appreciated.......& Regards, Graitney.

Can't really help, but you might like to keep this for future reference, from my other half's family tree:

Bradfield church 17th April 1871
Joseph Brammall   bachelor   29   Filesmith   Gate   John Brammall   Filesmith
Mary Bower   spinster   19      Gate   Benjamin Bower   Shoemaker
Witnesses: Jonathan Bower & Charlotte Hill   

Mary was the daughter of Benjamin (born Bradfield) and Mary Ann (born Dore, then in Derbyshire). 
Mary and Joseph Bramall lived at Wadsley, Sheffield.  She had an illegitimate daughter Alberta Bower Bramall.

Might be worth saving for future reference.
