Could Sir Alfred be a distant rellie?

Myself and someone else who is studying Huguenot families of London found out that the Kray Twins had some of my ancestors in their tree.

Kray Twins...that would be quite a cool addition to your tree. Scores you brownie points down the pub.

An ex-girlfriends father who worked at a local mental hospital was introduced to the brother Charlie in the 90's. He said he was a lovely bloke. But from what I have read baout the Kray's Charlie was the one with the head on his shoulders.

Yes their ancestor Mary Obey married in 1804 and one of the witnesses was my ancestor Samuel Obey.

Hi.
Charles Hitchcock 1791 is my GG Grandfather and Iam trying to find his parents and siblings.
I must admit it was a great to find the connection.

I walked past the blind beggar pub in Whitechapel once. I would be treated like a king if I said I was related to the Krays.

Hi Lizzy56, my name is Shelley 75 and Im trying to find the connection between our family tree and Alfred Joseph Hitchcock family tree. My GGGG Grandfather was born John Hitchock in about 1790 in Essex, do you know if your GG Grandfather Charles Hitchcock born about 1791 in Essex had a brother called John. Or if Charles had a brother called Richard Hitchcock born 1810 in Essex. My grandfather always told me and my dad that Alfred was connected to the family and we are trying to find the link. The likeness and characteristics of Sir Alfred Hitchcock and my Grandfather are so similar we are shore there is a link somewhere back in the tree. We ve traced our family back as far as John Hitchcock  born 1790. Can you help.

Hi Shelley75.
Im having problem's trying to trace the siblings of Charles. I have a marriage certificate of Charles and Sarah, Sarah was his second wife as on the certifcate it has him as a widower and there is a witness a Jane Hitchcock who could be a sister or sister-in-law.
May I ask what was John's occupation and did he come from Dedham Essex though it seems they were spread around the Essex area.
I sure he must have had siblings but cannot find Charles birth anywhere so I need to contact Essex Records Office perhaps they could help.
Sorry Im not of much help hopefully something will turn up soon

Hi Lizzy 56, All we know at the moment was John Hitchcock was a labourer and was born about 1790 in Essex. The son Richard Hitchcock born about 1810 was a gardener and married Susan Drinkwater on 25/11/1855. John had several other sons names unknown who emigrated to U.S.A. I was hoping if John Hitchcock had been Charles's brother that would be the connection.
All we ve found out so far is Charles was married to Sarah, they had a son called Joseph, he married Anne Mahoney, he had a son William who married Emma Jane Wheland and they had three children William, Eileen and Alfred Joseph ( who is Sir Alfred Hitchcock ). But you must know all this because this is your family. I think my dad or I are going to have to join ancestry.co.uk. to find out the rest of the info. Should we find any more info Ill let you know. Let me know if you find out any more info. Take care Shelley75.
