My Granny on my mothers side was a Brazil before she married. My grannys parents was Cordeila aka Dilly Brazil (Maiden name Sines) and James/Jimmy Brazil.

My great granny and grandfather had 7 children, 1 of which was a still born they named Billy (twin of Albert).

The childrens names are.

Dinah/Dianna aka chicken - Jimmy/James aka Boy - Goldlia aka Rabbit - Margret aka Sis - Albert and June.

Sadly uncle Jimmy, aunt Margret and aunt Goldlia are no longer with us. All are buried in the Shackle Gate lane cemetary in Teddington Middlesex, as is the still born Billy. Cordeila and Jimmy were seperated before they passed away and are not buried together. My great aunt Goldlia is buried with my great granny.

My great granny passed away in may 1988. Her son uncle Jimmy passed away in 1998/99, aunt Margret passed away in March/April 05 followed by Goldlia in November 05

My great granny was born at Walton upon Thames as was my granny. My great grandfather Jimmy was from field common in Walton upon Thames.

The Sines side of the family are from the Colnbrook area of Berkshire. Cordiela Brazil had a sister called Mary who married a Mark Sines but had no children. Aunt Mary and uncle Mark are buried in Horton near slough.

My great aunt Dinah/Dianna was names after Cordelias mum.

Dinah/Dianna is married to Jack Wooding (a none gypsy)
June was married (not legally) To Leonard Collins/Coates/Williams.
Margret was married to Alfie Summers.
Goldlia was married to Charlie Price.
Jimmy/James was married to a none Gypsy woman Pauline.
Alber married Barbara also a gorja.

In later years they all lived in and around the Teddington and Twickenham areas of Middlesex.

If anyone could expand on this I will be very greatful. I dont know how to use the censor things and dont understand them.

Many thanks.

Hi, my grandfathers family came from the Berkshire area. My grandfather was known by the name of Collins but his parents names were Leonard Williams and Sarah Collins/Coates.  My grandfather started using the name Collins after he lost his driving licence. His mother and father were never legally married. As far as I know my grandfather has two living siblings - a sister called Emmy and a brother called Walter who I believe are still in Berkshire. One of Uncle Walters son's is Damian and he lives in Middlesex.

I have an extensive tree featuring a large number of the travelling families of the South but I have hit a total brick wall with the Collins line and I would really appreciate any help at all.   My great-grandfather was Leonard Collins  1899-12 Dec 1968. I know his father was also Leonard but I don't know his mother's name.  Can anybody please help?

My grandfather was Leonard Collins, not your Leonard Collins, though they could be taken for twins going by your photograph... He was born Coates but used the name collins because he got banned from driving. He did scrap metal and horses. He came from the colnbrook/slough area and married (not legally) my granny June. They had 7 girls who were all very young when my grandfather passed away in (I think) 1971 on either christmas day or boxing day when they were living in west drayton midlesex. He is buried in Horton near Slough.
