Hello,

From re-reading your previous messages I do believe we are tracing the same family.
Do you know the names of all Edgar's children ?

Eva does not call herself Eva on her marriage cert: plus Edgar calls  himself Francis,Eva is Lilly.

When they left for Canada he was Edgar she was Eva and their daughter was Kathleen, on the form it is spelled with a C.

Hello again,

My Nana's name was Winifred and her sister's name was Margarete. I do not know of a Kathleen. However, I know that Boom-Boom (Eva) had  unfortune with an infant. Which is why she returned to England for the birth of her other children.

Hi Welshjo
               Sorry to say that your Ellen Brassington is not on my Family tree, there are so many Brassingtons, there must be a branch from my family that connects somewhere, yet to find out, but it as given me a challenge, in the mean time I have found some info  for you, can't comfirm 100%, Ellen Brassington born 1799 married George Keen born 1801, not sure as to the date of marriage, they had 5 children that I have found, first Thomas born 1823 and died 1851, John born 1829 and died 1833, Daniel born 1833 and died 1900, he married Mary Blurton, Prudence born 1836 and Clara born 1838, hope this helps you, I will continue to find the connection between Ellen and my Brassington Family.


Regards Ivor
