Title: Mapp's
Post by: Karen Mapp on Monday 20 June 11 15:49 BST (UK)

Hi, I have been researching my husband's family tree and have traced it back to John Thomas Mapp who was born in Newport. His father was George Mapp who married Dorothy Ellen Dennis in 1899 in Chasetown (sp?) and George's father and mother were William and Mary. I am going to order birth cert's for both John and George to prove the lineage - as of yet it is census conjecture :). Is anybody else researching these lines or come across them?

Not researching those lines but the marriage for george  is on freebmd and goes as lichfield. Chasetown is near cannock. There is a church called st ann(e)'s, it has a cemetry, i went round it two years ago.
