Perhaps you could help out with the Stimpson connection?

I'm really interested to know if William Stimpson had any brothers. In particular a brother called George? If so, this could possibly be my husbands paternal grandfather.

Thanks for your help.

Yes that's right! Jean was the youngest child and also my maternal grandmother whom sadly passed away about a year ago now. I was very close to her and spent lots of time with her as a child. I have some lovely stories!

There was also a son born to Ada who was called Phillip. Betty and Phillip are also deceased.

Ada and her husband share the same grave at the New cemetary on Spring Road in Abingdon. Betty and Phillip are also burried there in nerby graves. 

So would your mother be Freda Stimpson? I shall ask my mother as i'm sure it may ring a bell. 

Also i have just read back through all the messages and sorry for being a little slow, but am i right in thinking that there are in fact 2 Philips Viners? One with connections in Appleford and married to Mary Fiddler and the other with Abingdon connections married to Martha Benbow? Can you tell me how these two chaps fit together? Are they brothers?

Thank you so much.

Thank you Sue. That's very kind of you.

I have really fond memories of my great granny and so it would be lovely to hear from someone.

Have a great new year too.

Hi.

I am the great grandaughter of Ada Florence Elizabeth Viner. I have some photo's of her and her husband if you are interested. I have just started to look into my family tree.

Strangely enough, i married a STIMPSON 6 years ago!
