Family History Beginners Board / Re: Fenton/Nair

I have the very basic information, it is most helpful when others are researching the same family as they could have photographs and information that have been in their family. I have tried to look for advertisements etc for the circus that my ancestors were employed but I’m not really getting anywhere with that. I do not have any photographs of my grandmothers family other than her brothers Percy and Eugene.

Hi

Thank you for the reply, I have managed to gather quite a bit of information from previous posts on here. There were a few members who seem to have other information and photographs so I am hoping that they are this.

Family History Beginners Board / Fenton/Nair
« on: Tuesday 29 January 19 12:51 GMT (UK)  »
Hi,
I am really hoping that one or more read this and make a connection. I am currently trying to complete this family tree which has thrown all kinds of problems at me. I live in Middlesbrough, my paternal grandmother always told us that she really didn’t know who she was. And that is kind of true...she believed she was born Lilian Fenton and after a lot of delving we found her born as Lilian Nair!!!! I am assuming that anyone who has attempted this family tree has uncovered the almost impossible task of collating this. I have read previous posts which have helped me a great deal and firstly would like to thank those people who have done some of this homework. I would greatly appreciate any of you would contact me with any stories we could share and even photographs which would be fantastic. Apparently this was a circus family and I have tried so hard to get photographs for my father. Please, if anyone has the time to get in touch to share our information, again I would appreciate this greatly.
Thank you

Hi

Thanks for sending the link but I have already read through it all. There seemed to be a few people trying to solve the family mystery so I was hoping they all see the post.
Thanks

Family History Beginners Board / Fenton/Nair family tree
« on: Saturday 20 January 18 13:22 GMT (UK)  »
Hi

I was hoping that someone will be able to help with the mystery of the Fenton/Nair family tree. My grandmother was Lily Nair surprisingly as she thought she was Fenton all her life. I have just discovered a few facts about the family, apparently they were circus performers which falls in right because my grandmother told us that her mother was a bare back horse rider in the circus. If anyone is attempting to study this family tree please get in touch.
Thanks
Nicola

Hi

I hope some of you are still active on this site especially on this chat. My grandmother was Lily Nair (Fenton), we used to ask her about her family and she used to say she didn’t know who she was because she didn’t have a birth certificate. She believed she was Fenton but I have just found out tonight she was registered as Nair in Middlesbrough the same as the death registration for her father Albert in 1914 in Middlesbrough . She told us that her mother was a bare back rider in the circus so that matches up with the family. I just want to know the link between her and Albert and Ada Fenton/Nair?? If anyone can help with this confusing family tree that would be much appreciated... and if anyone has any photos that would be great. I have photographs of my Nana's 2 brothers, Eugene and Elba.
