(1)  I would like to ask Mary Pearle (b. 1832 Brettenham, Suffolk)  to tell me her story.   She had two illegitimate children,  and married the father of her  third child  shortly before he was born.  She then left the children (including the baby) with her mother and went off to live with her new husband.  They later parted  (he appears to have gone back to his mother) and she bigamously married another husband, and ended up living with a third husband in what looks like reduced circumstances. Mary Pearle, was it all worth it, or did you spend most of your life in tears?

(2)  Lucy Bristo, who married John Hewis(s)on, Royal Artillery, in Woodbridge in 1806 - what happened to John Hewis(s)on?   Where did he come from and where did he go?  AND why was your daughter, Lucy, baptised Lucy Bristo Hewison in 1807,  always known as Lucy Bristo?  Was this a bigamous marriage?  Did he do you wrong, the  [possibly] utter swine?

(3)  Lovely Syslye Waddilove, who married John Pearle in Rattlesden, Suffolk in 1570 - please, please tell me where you came from! I know there are Waddiloves in Norfolk - are they yours?  They are only a few miles away from Rattlesden so it is quite possible, but impossible to prove...

But we are allowed sub-sections so just put a little i, ii, iii etc and you'll be fine. ;D

Now that's more like it, that gives me a new question to play with.
I will go with John Simpson, baptised as Whitaker,(1815 Yorkshire) raised by parents, John Simpson and Elizabeth Whitaker (who married same day as he was baptised),  John married first time as either Simpson or Whitaker, married second time as a Simpson, Children all in the name of Simpson, and possibly died as a Whitaker because he is named as Whitaker on his second wifes death certificate.
Phew!!!
Would love for him to sort all that out ;D

Oh my!

Q1 Where, George Morjeanstern 9b.1791), were you born in France and when and where did you marry Mary Quin, oh and was it Morjeanstern or Morgenstern with a French accent, that would help a great deal?

Q2 Where George Hooker b.1740ish were you really born Odiham or somewhere else?

Q3 Was it James Bailey (b.1841) or John Bailey or John James Bailey, depending how you felt. Were you born in London and were your parents from Birmingham? Did you legally go from Jeweler to living on your own means?

I could find more questions but these ones niggle me.

I would ask my  maternal great grandfather's brother where he went to and what he did between 1861 and 1891, [in 1861 he is a farm labourer, in 1891 he returns as a 'gentleman' with a wife, six children, four servants. My great great grandparents are also at the same address.
The six children were born in the USA [2],Canada [3] and Scotland. No trace of a marriage anywhere. I cant find them in any UK/US/Canadian census between the years mentioned.

I would ask my paternal great grandmother what happened to her parents and 8 siblings after 1881.

Finally I would ask my maternal grandmother not to dispose of my father's belongings the day after he died. [They didnt get on]

I would also like to know why Mr. and Mrs Clulo were  travelling back from South Africa, on board Durham Castle in 1904.
Also there is a daughter of James Clulo and Esther Vickers, Ann b. 1803, who has just disappeared!

Genslueth sadly we may be genetically related as my father's 'adopted' sister tore up every single photograph of my family (- ie her 'adopted brother's' family to which we were always referred) on the day my Nanna died.  I wouldn't care but she was a grown up at the time.

I think I may be related to LizzeW too for the same reason.  It is only since I did the family tree that I found my Dad's one cousin was in fact the eldest of ten.  And my Dad never knew.  It is through these unknown 'other cousins' that I have managed to get so many clues.  By the way my Dad's one cousin lived in the same village as him but there was 17 years difference.

I expect if we got far enough back we'd all be related.
