                      Mary b 1839 Norwich
                      John William b1865 sunderland
                       Frederick G b1861 sunderland
                       Robert b1871 sunderland

Thanks Rachael

At same address (but separate household)

John Roberts Head M 68 Chelsea Pensioner Yorkshire Cartsworth

I think that these are Mary Lewins’ parents and that George is the Nephew shown with them in 1881.

Hi Rachael, My great grandfather was the Frederick George Lownds noted, son of John and Mary (Roberts).  I am also looking for the same information for the family so find the reply really useful!  I have only gotten back as far as William (father of John). 

Glad to meet a distant cousin!

Hi

Glad the information was useful for you. Somewhere I my search I took a wrong turn and followed a wrong person so the Lownds are not part of my tree like I thought they were. Good luck I your search x
