@Ataturk05 - Yes, we have a definite match! Your wife's grandmother was indeed my father's sister Sarah, who was known by everyone as Sissy. She is mentioned, under her married name of Bush, in the newspaper clipping I have of my grandfather's obituary notice. I understand that Sissy had hardly any contact with the rest of the family after she got married, and unfortunately I never had the chance to meet her myself, but she did resume contact with her sister Molly in their latter years. My father died when I was 8, so I didn't get the opportunity to ask him very much about his family, but I did know Molly and her daughters. How much information does your wife have so far? I'm afraid I know very little about Sissy and don't even have any photographs of her, but I'm happy to share all that I know about the rest of the family. Your wife is my first cousin once-removed
@cyclamen - it is possible that our Holmes families are related too...we both have a John Holmes who was a carpenter, but I really don't have any more information to go on at the moment . Are there any other children of John Holmes listed on the 1901 Census?
