amidine bland (nee smith) was my grandma's elder sister. they were gipsies living in melton mowbray leics . amidine died in 1949 and i was hoping that her descendants may have family photos of her , her parents and siblings. i would appreciate it very much if they could get back to me about this. i have lots of info i can share too.
