yes, looks like it's the same family. I am on Genes Reunited although the family tree isn't. My user name is the same as on here

Hi Peter,
My partner's grandmother was Dorothy May Parker, born 1901, granddaughter of Henry and Viletta/Violetta.
Perhaps we can pool our knowledge?

Hertfordshire / Abraham PELLANT/PALLANT
« on: Saturday 27 August 11 15:01 BST (UK) »
Can anyone give me any pointers where I should go with this?
OH's gggrandfather was Abraham Pellant 1828 - 1890 from St Albans Abbey parish Hertfordshire. Father is listed as William on his marriage lines and I know mother was Mary Smith 1975/6 - 1871. Mary was married to Robert Pallant who died in 1823 in St Giles, London. They had 3 children, all baptised in London. I have a removal/settlement document for Mary dated 1825 returning her to St Albans. So it looks like Abraham was illegitimate. My problem is that HALs informed me that many records from this period were destroyed in WW2. I know quite a bit about Abraham's adult life as he was a prominent figure in the town, but it looks like this may be the end of the road for any research further back.
Have I hit a truly insurmountable brick wall?
