Title: Daisy Forest Meaden
Post by: CV-S on Wednesday 18 May 11 11:21 BST (UK)

Hello

I was hoping someone could please help me with my great grandmother.
Daisy Forest Meaden was born in 1881 in Sussex. She married Edward Farrington in Croydon and died in 1939.
I think her mother's maiden name was Forest or Forrest.

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

Thanks Karenlee

That explains why she was Daisy Forrest Meaden. Her daughter who is 97 orginially couldn't remember any of her uncles, aunts etc. but maybe with some names she can jog her memory.

That's great Karenlee
You've found Daisy for twenty years of life
Just a quick question: It seems like Daisy moved to Croydon from Sussex but then do you know if her husband had come from Croydon?

Thank you very much

That's a bit trickier I think.....  there is an Edward FARRINGTON born 1882 Croydon that appears in the Census that might be your man.  Do you know what his occupation was when he married Daisy??

Thanks for helping

I have no idea what occupation Edward had but all I know about him is he died in 1951 aged about 71.
