Hello - my cousins in USA say a family story indicates that we had gypsy connections - one of our ancestors was Elizabeth Roberts born 1785 who lived in Denbighshire - was she related to John Roberts born 1814 - the famous Royal Welsh Harpist - he married the grand daughter of Abraham Wood - the founder of the gypsy dynasty - does anyone know of the existence of a family tree which might answer the question ? I would be most grateful. John Ashley
