Hi Cazza...It might be worth posting a query on here:

http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/board,135.0.html

If you include the surname in the title of your post...other researchers of the penna line and related families it will bring them here...as it do for you.
Good Luck!

Hi CazzaB
As far as I am aware the Hull Daily Mail for that date is not online.  The British Newspaper Archive has HDM online only up to 1950 at the moment, though they seem to be adding new pages from time to time.  The paper should be available on microfiche at the Hull History Centre.  If you live locally to Hull it would be worth checking with them.   :)

Hi I am also related being the son of ouis George Nicholas Togni who was the son of Louis Robert Togni who I think was the sister of Rose?

I live in Somerset UK. Would be interested to know any info you have on the family I am happy to send you mine as well

They were based as Togni Ice Ltd in Hammersmith moving to Isleworth/Brentford Middlesex sometime after the 2nd war.

Welcome to Rootschat cardpos  ;D

Unfortunately my dad passed away in 2010, but he could remember playing with the Togni boys.
He often referred to 'Doi-doi' and 'Troddon', which I think were the 'anglicised versions' of the boys names as the local boys were unable to say the names properly.

Try as I may, I cannot work out what they are supposed to be  ::)

My dad's family moved from Hammersmith to Barnes in the 1930s.

Pat ...
Every time I find an ancestor,
I have to find two more!

SUFFOLK - Pendle, Stygall, Pipe, Fruer, Bridges, Fisk, Bellamy, Sparham - all link to  Framlingham 
DERBY - Bridges and Frost (originally Framlingham/Parham)
NOTTINGHAM - Lambert & Selby
BERKSHIRE/then Hammersmith LDN - Fulker
LDN/MDX - Murray, Clancy, Broker, Hoskins, Marsden, Wilson, Sale
 
GGfather Michael Wilson born Cork, lived Fulham London - moved to Boston USA 1889, what happened next?

I cannot think what Doi doi and Trodden could be. How old was your dad when he died. My grandfather was Louis Robert and his brother was Oliver. There was also a sister named Kate (married surname Chipps)

If I think of anything I will let you know
