Seeking Brick Wall Breakthrough - ARFORD/ALLWOOD
« on: Monday 17 December 07 20:37 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I have a family Group Sheet which is 12 years old with the following details upon it, from whence it came I know not where!:
Principal..... Robert ARFORD/ALLWOOD born: Rattlesden, Suffolk

Only One Marriage recorded...spouse possibly Margaret !

Children x 3

James Allwood died 1808 Wetheringsett, Suffolk  Married 17 May 1773 Wetheringsett, Suffolk Spouse Mary Potter

Sarah Allwood born ? 1747

Joseph Allwood born ? 2 September 1750.

Is anyone able to help find any info on these people as James and Mary were my GGGG Grandfather and Grandmother and would love to find out if Robert and Margaret may have been his parents and then of course any info on them to get me through the proverbial Brick Wall .

Thanks in anticipation.

When I go to that I just get a blank ancestral chart to fill in, I fill it in and is says no matches. Is that what you were intending me to find or had you actually found some Allwoods?

Regards

Right, understand and have had a good look, in fact the James and Mary that are holding me up are the first two on the list. Did not find my crack in the wall though regrettably. One of those, and there are quite a few must be James father, or one would think so. It is so frustrating particularly when other older are so clearly traceable.
Oh well, perhaps I'll get a breakthrough one day, hope so as three different families of Allard tracing their ancestors have come to this brick wall, coincidence or what?
Thanks again Liz
