John, I am an American living in London. My grandmother was Anne Mellanby from Leeds and i just wonder if you ever cam across that side of the family. I have found a number of relatives originally from that area, also with surname Senior and Robinson.

Kind regards,

Ron

Hi, My grandmother's name was Anne Mellanby. She was born in Leeds, the oldest of six sisters and one brother. Her father was William Mellanby and mother was Francis (Fanny) Thompson, I believe. Her father and brother were wireworkers on Concord Street in Leeds (Mellanby and Son - I have an interesting old photo). I have done some family research (my father was born in Leeds) but wonder if she and her father had any direct relations to some of the other Mellanby's discussed. I can find a Robinson (a sister married one and they bought a pub in Leeds) and Thompson (1700's). Any further suggestions very welcome.

Ron
