Hullo rebekahm28. I notice you list WILKES as one of your surnames. Would you have any connection with WILKS in Worcestershire?

Jamie -
The Wilkes are my husbands direct ancestors and living family.  I have my sons great grandfather as Baden Wilkes, who married into the Astell family.  He was born 1909, and lived his life in Banbury.  However, I havent (yet) started to go back further on his tree. He called himself Jack throughout his life.

Well, if you do research the WILK(E)S and find some ancestors in Worcs, let me know  Smiley

Mine came from Grimley, and Hallow in Worcs and Winchcombe in Gloucs. I'm not sure that they're Romany though.
