Title: Histon - Eliza Pettit :(???
Post by: EmmaPettit on Thursday 06 November 08 10:33 GMT (UK)

Hello all

I'm currently trying to track down an ancestor, Eliza Pettit born 1865 in Histon to a William and Ann Pettit.

The last known record i have of her is when she was 6 in 1871.
Any help locating her after this time would be highly appreciated.

With great thanks,
Emma  :-X :-X

Hi Emma

My 2nd great grand aunt was Caroline Osborne 1823 - 1895 who married John Petit 1810 - 1887.

I only currently have details of their 9 children.

Are you related to John?
