Hi All,

I think my Family maybe related to the Gypsies - Sarah Ann Blackman who married a Joseph Ripley and went to jail in 1861.  I believe one of her children may have been by another man - Samuel Muggeridge who was an artist?  The child is John William Ripley born 1860 and then married an Emma Holmes in 1883 in Gravesend.  Any help greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi, I am researching my Mother-in-Law's Family Tree.  Her great grandfather was born John William Ripley in 1860 in North Kensington - the date and place of birth change throughout the Censuses.  I cannot find a birth certificate for him.  All the John William Ripley's I have looked at have a "Ripley" as the Father.  On John's marriage certificate to Emma Holmes in 1883, his Father is registered as Samuel Muggeridge - occupation - artist?  I may have found a link to a Ripley Family who were gypsies - maybe a Sarah Ann Ripley nee Blackman could have been John William's Mother but I cannot prove this. 

Would appreciate your help, many thanks
