I am searching for info on Alice Lee, born 1862 and married to Charles Ketley, born 1861. They had several children, Alice, Clifford, Fede, Lawrence, Willm and Alfred. I believe that Alice had a brother (Harry) who was born in Mashbury, Essex, England. Alice Lee is my great grandmother.

Thanks Kris,
I only heard about this site today and already have been given some great information - thanks heaps!
I was born in Great Baddow and later moved to Clacton-on-sea. My parents emigrated to Australia when I was 7 and I have been here ever since. Went back to England for the first time last August and saw relatives for the first time in 36 years! Finding info on the Lee side has been difficult because they were gypsies.
Adele

  WOW!!!!
I take you get the information from the census records. Were do you go to get this info? I believe the Harry Lee in the information you gave me could be my mother's uncle but the only information she could give me was that he was born under a tree in Mashbury. Apparently when I was a toddler she would take me to visit the gypsie caravan of our relatives.
Thanks again,
Adele
