I am looking for information on this family. I do not have a marriage or date of death.
Here is what I have.
Jack or John Sampson Roberts was born 1897 and died in 1963 at age 65.
He married Flora Rippon Date and place unknown.
I do not have a dates for Flora birth or death nor place of burial.
They had two children. Phyllis and Joan ( who died shortly after birth) I do not know where Joan is buried.
Look forward to learning more about this side of my family. ;D

There is also a Sampson W J Roberts with parents Edward and Jane but I thought Phillis clinched it.
You should still really send for the marriage cert to verify his dad ;)

I know about the family that John " Jack " to his friends Roberts came from it is the time up to his marriage, after and his death I would like to know about.
John was middle name was "Sampson" after his father.
But I do not have any information on his wife Flora RIPPON and that is my main concern.
They had two children Phyllis and Joan ( Joan died young)
Date of death unknown. Could be buried at Peranzubloe Cemetery.
I have no date of their marriage, not death dates.
I have some information on Phyllis.
AT this present time I am unable to contact Phyllis as I do not have her address and understand she is ill.
I don't have any idea who Flora Rippon was maybe one of nine children. Some names are: Susan, Jim, Myra, Ena, and George are names mentioned.
That is what I have gleaned after looking over all my notes.

Hi Sheila
Hope I don't appear churlish but it might have been an idea to make that clear in the first place.
Good luck with your research
