LEWIS, Albert John Turton Griffiths of FALMOUTH, Cornwall
« on: Friday 21 September 12 00:34 BST (UK) »
Greetings

I am looking for descendants or information about the family of Albert John Turton Griffiths LEWIS and his wife Susan LANGMAN. They had three children Edith LEWIS (b 1885), Albert E LEWIS (b 1887) and Florence LEWIS (b 1889). At the time of the 1891 Census they were living at Killigrew Street, Falmouth and Albert was an unemployed carpenter. I have been unable to find any more about them.

Thanks

Many thanks to you all. You have put the family together. I was hoping this would lead to some living descendants but they have been knocked off with one foul swoop!
Much obliged.

Do you know what happened to the 2 sisters?
