Yes it is I've been down it before.  Its all getting interesting now.  like I said there are a few William's and Samuel's Plumbs so not sure which those ones were, I'll try and sort them out over the next few days.

Well I'm off now.

I should think it was william and samuel on my tree as Selby's were mentioned too, Ann selby being Williams wife...think it mentioned 2 selbys, so that could be brother's of Ann or her father and brother.



Hope you have a good evening :)

Well...  Flip me, I missed a lot yesterday!!!

Will send my email address ...

I've been looking in my book of Gypsy names Selby is a known gypsy surname in the LDN SCO SSX YKS areas
Moore is KEN LDN LIN SSX STF YKS

Maybe they lived with gypsys always around them, and some were drawn into that way of life.

Kesiah Booth was definately a gypsy - I have found a lot of Petty session appearances for her!!  as well as the Everett Booth ones we know about - even into her old age - she was always roaming and with other known gypsies.

Got JJ off school again today - so may dip in and out.

All very interesting...

Found a big gypsy connection on my Smith side which confirms to me that I've found the right family there which I'm pleased about - but still have no idea which family Carolina and Maria are from...

Kazi
Smith, Plumb, Booth, Slater, Purdy, Clayton, Loveridge
Gray, Parker, Elliott, Wright, Towle, Wesseldine, Margot's, Bacon, Blankley, Goodwin, Stafford.

Hi Jane,

Be careful with American connections as they don't always check the facts to prove it  and will connect family's up where they shouldn't.  I found a number of American trees that had my Elizabeth Green who was born in Lambley married to someone called Jackson in America but in fact she married a Samuel Plumb in Nottingham and lived and died in Lambley and  I seen the prove that their Elizabeth Green was born in America.

whenever I find a name, I don't just add it to my tree....I search and search because I don't want to just have names, I want the names to paint a picture, so I search for occupations, what those jobs were like in that era, what schools they attended, the local area, what else was there where they lived....why this, why that.....I love history as well as geneaolgy
