hi you may have found who you are looking for by now,I have some lee's living with my Romany ancestors in the Kent and sussex area's I also now of some Emmets "various spellings" who changed their name to lee.

No I'm still looking, Jenty seems to be almost untraceable. Found a certificate that puts her in Darford marrying George Bignell in 1916 (5 years after their son was supposedly born) so any info would be a huge help!

Thanks
J

Thanks everyone for all the tips really helpful. I haven't been on here in ages, wasn't ignoring you all.


my granny & granfather was bignells ...george & genty there lived in corkes pit st mary cray ..there had 10 children...8 boys & 2 girls...the old woman(genty)also lived on belvedere marshes ....her name before she got married was lee

Thanks i wasn't aware she lived at the marshes. They were my great great grandparents. Their son George married Florence and had my granddad James. I think they all still lived at corkes pit till they had my dad. Heard a rumor there were more than the 8 children i knew about. I heard there were 13?

Trying to find out about my family history. Would really appreciate it if anyone knew of any websites that are more specifically for Kent gypsy genealogy.
Mainly looking for the name BIGNELL at the moment.

Finding it very difficult to track my gypsy side of the family as they didn't have too many documents. Would really appreciate it if anyone knew of any websites that are more specifically for gypsy genealogy, even more so if they have any information about them in Kent.
