Hello All,
I am looking for info on Mary Ann Sibthorpe Nee Loveridge formerly Banks.
I cannot find a record of her birth, so I am unable to trace the line back further.
I know she was born 19 April I believe the year was 1875 (but we can't confirm that)
she died 15 Feb 1976 in Deptford.
she married Benjamin Banks 1897
she married William Sibthorpe on 24 Dec 1918
We know her fathers name was Thomas Loveridge and believe her mother was Elizabeth ??
Any info would be gratefully rec'd. I have run out of leads, I have lots of theoreticals but no solid confirmation, to help further my long search.
Regards,
Jo

Keyboard,
Thomas is who I am looking for, I believe W is William Loveridge (his brother).
I think Thomas was born circa 1850 no idea where.
Thanks for your help.

;D Hi again, hope you do not mind, but you seem to have had a hell of lot of information re Mary Ann/Polly that at the outset you should have provided!
Your initial post states b c 1875 nearer 1879/80 you did not know where etc

Hi Keyboard, I know a wealth of info on her life - it is the generation before I am struggling with.
It is her birth and parents I am looking for:
All I know is her father was Thomas and mother Elizabeth - then I hit a dead end as I cannot find MaryAnn/Polly birth.
I have no idea where she was born as her parents travelled and did not settle in Deptford until the 1880/1890. Her death cert states born 1875 but we cannot confirm this. Family stories states she could have been as old as 106 when she died, however a local news report would have it at nearer 100.
I hope this clears things up. Thanks again for your help.
