Hi Cathay.

As a side note, I notice that there is a Baker family again showing up.

And also a Scott family line. Did this Scott family ever stop in Wiltshire in the 1850's?

Best!

Hello,

Iam learning to just walk around here- when things start moving they move fast.

Also Iam at the very end of my day at the other end of our Global Village and it's high summer.

Hi Again,

In the 1851 Sarah Brazil was born 1847 at Croboro Sussex, dau of John & Priscilla.

Aunty Sarah Brazil was born abt 1834 Romney Marsh.

This is interesting!

I find in the 1891 Sussex Broadwater. In Caravans and Tents in Field [Brighton Rd]

Sarah A Brazil- "Hawker", born abt 1837 Crowborough Sussex. Mother of James Brazil. wife is Rebecca.

11 children, one dau also named Priscilla again.

The family were travelling with Charles & Silvia Lee & Co, John & Celia Johnson & Co, George & Ann Ripley & Co. and Clement & Ellen Greenfield.

Still looking for Taylors!

Best.

They were travelling with;

Thomas & Elizabeth Burratt and their children;

Brisella and Sabon Burratt.

And also Elizabeth Harlot [Thomas Burratt's Mother] and Thomas Harlot, his nephew.

I hope this is one of your Sarah's :)

Fingers crossed.

Grant.

Thanks for that Cathay!

My Bakers are tight back to 1796 and we have another record of them in the same parish- Bishopstone as "Travellers" in 1775 so this is all nice and early. And as you know they were associated with later Rom family's in the 1850's. It's my Potter's that need work. Thank's for the kind offer.

Grant. ;)
