Bird family Guernsey

Hi Kermie 62,
That is interesting. What was the surname of Mary Ann Strutt's brother?The short pedigree from the diary mentions the Chivers family as a continuation of that line.
Regards Ceronn.

sincerely Ceronn.

Hi  Ceronn.

Sorry for the delay in replying,

I have some information regarding the Strutt family including the census data. Mary Ann Strutts brother was John Valentine Rolfe which we are prety sure of. Her eldest son married her cousin John's widowed daughter and came to Australia.

I am interested in making contact with anyone who has is researching this family, to exchange information or to help if I can

Hi - this is a posting for Fezworth. I believe we share a Mary Ann Bird born 1815 in Guernsey.  She is my gggg-grandmother. She married George Cobb (my gggg-gfather) in 1837. In the 1841 census they are living in Cross Guns Yard Newark with William Watkins Bird, William Charles Bird, Thomas and Charles Cobb. A description of Cross Guns Yard can be found ...  http://www.newarkadvertiser.co.uk/featurecontent/history/tim-warner/warner76.asp  . It makes for interesting reading!
I have not been able to trace further back than Mary, although having read some of the threads on rootschat now have some more leads to follow.
Any help or hints you could pass on would be much appreciated, I didn't realise how many Birds there are (my other main surname interest Smith!!)
Thanks

Hello Mary Sue
Of George Augustus Birds children who are you descended from. I have information on a number of his descendents and am quite willing to share although it is sparse when it comes to the Australian and NZ members.
Look forward to hearing from you

Who is interested in Matilda Strutt born 2nd October 1825 Isleworth, daughter of Joseph Strutt & Mary Ann Rolfe

Matilda Strutt = Richard Stone who was born 16th June 1824 Malvern, Worcestershire.  They were married

They had the following Children:-

In 1861 Richard Stone was an Upholsterer's Clerk, from 1871 he was a Stationer living 22 Boundary Road, Hampstead, London.

In 1871 Gertrude born abt 1861 is Living with her Aunt Kezia Bird nee Strutt in Cockherbtown, Cardiff.

I hope this is of assistance, not related to this Strutt family, but researching other Strutts and went down the
wrong line.

re John Valentine Strutt Australia.
Have come across a number of Valentine Birds in my searches, Anyone aware if  they might be linked to the Bird family from Guernsey/Cardiff/London.

The Valentine name is a common first name in the Australian family I was following
