Hi Guys
Danone
I have a letter from my grAns neice Susan who lives in Liverpool she told me to read the books by Philipa Gregory about lady Jane grey the nine days queen now we have found a relative who had some thing to do with her but we are having trouble reading Susan’s writing she as said a sir Navel effilin marreid a Elizabeth saker
She said her grandad came from Buckfastleigh we can’t make head way with this
-
It would help if you attached the writing you are having trouble with.
Or you could Google the book and the characters in it.
-
As shanreagh said, please attach a copy of the letter that you are having difficulty with so that we can review it and provide suggestions.
-
Something you could consider is doing the research yourself to confirm what Susan found.
Are there any parts of what Susan wrote that you can read? Eg where do “Navel/kaved” and Elizabeth fit into your tree? Who are their children? Their parents? What dates and places were they all born? We might be able to piece together the illegible part of the tree if we can identify some other close family members.
I agree with the others though … if you post the part of the document which contains the names we might be able to offer some suggestions.

Would it not be simpler to contact Susan & ask her to clarify whatever it is you can't read or understand? Your post gives the impression you are in contact
