My Grandmother - who died in 1951 when I was 3 was one of Alfreds daughters but born after he left the army and became a basket maker like his father James. I just about remember my Grandma Mary Maud Oatway but I remember her sister Rose very well, my Great Aunt, who was a lovely lady.  Rose and Mary Maud married 2 brother Albert Hughes my Grandad and Edward Hughes.  On the 1901 census Mary Maud is living with her sister Rose and brother in law Edward Hughes so I assumed she had no parents at that stage.  She married my Grandad in 1903.  I wish I'd started doing this before my Dad died because he probably would have had a lot of answers for me.  Thanks for your information.

Hi, I just registered for this Roots Chat and really don't know what I'm doing. I'm a bit mean and often short of time so haven't got a suscription to Ancestry.  However I've just started on my Grandmnothers side of family - Mary Maud Oatway b 1881, daughter of Alfred b 1842 (who enlisted in the army 1861 and spent 16 years in Ireland, in fact his first 2 children were born there) Alfred was the son of James b1814 and also a basket maker like James who you are also looking at, could I ask your connection please.
