I have another certificate for my wife's Nan, Charlotte TAYLOR, born 3 Jun 1941 in a caravan at Rose Cottage, Audley Road, Chesterton, Staffordshire, her dad is given as Abraham TAYLOR a domestic gardener and her mother Ada TAYLOR formally LOCKE
Does anyone know anything about these two Romani families?

Hi

Thanks for your offer of help, I'm sorry but I don't know anything else about Leonard or Elizabeth. My wife is in contact with one of Ada's daughters but she is in Australia and only has limited access to a computer.

I have however found a Possible Leonard LOCK in the 1901 census aged 18 living in Claverley near Bridgenorth, his dad is given as Buzz LOCK.

Many thanks
