Immigrants & Emigrants - General / Re: Roberts Family-Sussex
« on: Thursday 16 January 20 15:14 GMT (UK)  »
I have a book here (Penzance in Cornwall), Uncle Tom's Cabin, which I just bought, basically for the age of print 1853. Plus, I always love the personal inscriptions sometimes found in the inside cover. This particular inscription caught my attention: Emma Roberts, presented by her nephew, Edward Thomas, August 19, 1853.

First, I noticed the date written in the American order.
The next curious thing, when I Googled the names, were that Emma Roberts and Edward Thomas which appear linked in your published family tree.

I am just wondering, given the names  relation, and dates, if I could have a Roberts - Thomas heirloom here?
