If anyone has 'Roberts' family connections to Newport (and surrounding villages) or Bridgend (and surrounding villages) I have info to share with you. Romany gypsy families only.

My father in law was a brother to Rosina and lived in the Forest of Dean. His mothers n.name was Carolina and she was born in Leominster of gypsy heritage.    Would love to know more.

I have a lot to tell you, Rosina's mum was baptised Coralena Hoskins. Im researching the Roberts side but I do have info on Rosina's side. Not sure what you already know, or where to start. Its a shame the family all settled into housing and married gaujas.

Don't have much information as my father in law didn't talk about his background.

My husband used to visit his aunt Rosina.   What is your link to the family?

You know of Bill and Louisa Roberts? Married but lived separately in later years. I havent got my tree up but Bill (William) was Johns father or grandfather.  I have a photo of Louisa, but that isnt your side.   Bill's sister Genty (Gentila) was my great granny, she lived in Newport and before that Bridgend. They were born in Kent though. My dad was named after Bill. *I dont suppose you know anything about the Burton's from Bridgend? Jemima, Oldie, etc?
