John Culine has traced his family back 500 yrs according to one article, and as the Jeffries family seems to have married into it/travelled with him, he may be able to help with your queries

Hi, I've been tracing my family history, I knew I was descended from Gypsysbut didn't know which line. I've managed to go back to around 1700,  and all my Jeffries side are from Norfolk. I've found one that ended up in Kent, but my ft ft grandparents ended up in Bury, Lancashire. I've read that Nichols is a traveller name too and I've got a Nichols marrying in way back. So, I'm certain I'm on the right track with the gypsy side. I'd be willing to share info if you're interested?  X

Jubilee Elizabeth Greta Jeffries was my grandma born in 1887 she married Bernard William Jeffries.

This was before your date range but the names are the same and they were fair ground ride proprietors.
