I come from th family of james n trinity hicks .I 2 am findind it hard 2 sort my family ,notice ur on ancestry .my grandparents wer eddie n sophie isaacs ,although on birth certificate e was a hicks .not strange as I think due 2 the censos gypsys wer wary of people .imagine being in 1 village 4 a while havin the censos .then movin on 2another village and sum1 else takes a censos ,they wd think it was weird so theyd change ther name abit.anyway my  granddads dad was called morris  his wife betsy .his dad was called mattew on censos no wife or childrens names just abt 6 kids  .y I don't know.my mum said er granddad was called Arthur ,bt on the marriage of morris n betsty father mattew .I no theres a morris hicks married a athalia ayres .wonder if mattew is realy morris 2 as my mum said wer related to the ayres, don't know.ancestrys so confusing,so wondered if u hv any ideas
