Hi Teresa,

your Rosanna Grice seems to be born in 1863 Great Yarmouth.
parents Elizabeth b. 1838 and William GRICE born 1831

i sugest you ask for a lookup on this site in the 1891 census for Rosanna (married name) and her husband.

they should be able to find this for you and let you know kids names.
need any help,
just let me know

ah squeals,

i knew i'd seen her before.

she is in my family tree!!!!!

that means that we must be distantly related, (depending on her relationship to you i guess...)

Hi Sarah
Thanks for that, I took over this project a few years ago. It was started by an uncle who lived near to the records office so research was easy for him. I then had a break and moved to North Cyprus where internet was not so good. We now have 24 hrs internet so out come all the papers and some have been lost including the Grice. I am sure i will find them they have just been put somewhere safe.
I have access to ancestry.co.uk also 1881 and 1851 census if i can return the favour in any way.
Just seen your last post Jonas robert is my 7th cousin twice removed.
I will write you a detailed list later of everything i have as my tree goes back to 1550.
Nice to have connected with another family member however distant.

Thanks Teresa,

that would be great!

i'll let you know how i go on with what i'm up to on that side. A GRICE that i have married a CHILD. (CHILD is my grandmothers name).

best of luck with your searching. i hope all the missing info turns up. that is so infuriating when that happens.

regards
sarah
