Hello
I'm looking into my family tree and there's always been talk of us descending from Romani's in Yorkshire but I'm having trouble finding evidence. My family seems to have been around Selby/Snaith in Yorkshire. With jobs listed as general/farm labourers. I've found no direct decendent on the rtfhs.

My great great grandfather was Frank Clayton 1821-1890
(His father)
Abraham Clayton 1821-
(His father )
William Clayton 1788-1880
(Hi father)
John Clayton 1758-1832
Any info on if these were Romani peoples would be great as there's no one left to ask in my immediate family.

Cheers

Thankyou so much I will have a look into them!

The jobs listed for the members I have mentioned as farm/general labourers.
The wife of Abraham was a Ellen smith.
Daughter of a William smith.
I looked for any more evidence in jobs but there was no more obvious jobs listed.

I also tried looking into the spread of the family and through generations there was some movement around Yorkshire. Snaith, Selby, Willoughby.

I will check out the sources though.
Thankyou
