Well, that's the family scandal...Caroline never married...most improper for a teacher in that era..so she moved to Dorset with my Grandad who was brought up by another family...and referred to this other woman as 'mum'...while his real mum was teaching nearby...quite sad really....wasn't until a few years back that I was told the "Aunty Caroline" (obviously my namesake) was in fact my Great Grandmother!!!

However, Caroline did live in Brighton up until 1916 with her parents before she "fell from grace"...as did her uncle and his family..so there could be some connection there...

Hi Cazz

This is really interesting (apart from the OFF TOPIC remarks) Roll Eyes

How old would she have been when she was in Brighton - date of birth, etc. and when did she arrive there? Also, was she a teacher or a governess? I assume she left when your grandfather was born?

I'm getting lots of possible ideas. I do like a puzzle  Cheesy

Is it possible to put this on a totally different thread - like one where a certain gentleman is not allowed  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

I was thinking that she might have been a child that your grt grandmother looked after.
