I am also looking for someone with the surname Sewell (either Annie or Eliza) who married an Alfred Charles Rose. I think they were my great-grandparents.

I wonder if it is the same couple you are searching for?


Welcome back to Rootschat lisa2312 I don’t know if this information will be of help to you

Alfred and Annie’s three daughters Anna/ie (married 31 Aug 1929 ), Elsie (married 19 Aug 1933) Bessie Rose (married 25 Dec 1930 ) are available to view on Anc*y London, England, Church of England Marriages and Banns, 1754-1940, if you have a subscription, also their baptisms and parents marriage (20 Dec 1902)

Death of husband Alfred in 1910 Hackney age 25, Annie Rose remarried George Hawkins Jun qtr 1914 Shoreditch ( can’t see this marriage on line) to confirm her fathers name.

Annie’s children with George Hawkins

Thank you so much for all that very useful information, Ladyhawk. My mum remembers the name George Hawkins, so it must be the right family!
Betty, I am not able to send a PM to you until I post at least 3 messages on this board. This is my 3rd message so hopefully I’ll be able to message you privately now… I will give it a go
