wow, amazing to find someone that knows of her... is it definitely Martha, daughter of Drusilla (nee Camfield) and John Pettigrove rather than Martha, daughter of Polly (nee Lee) and Richard Pettigrove?   Do you know much about her?

 John Frost aka Pettigrove. Do you know where they lived? I dont know much about my GDads uncles but I did know one had an accident with a showmans engine and a man was killed. Another may have had an arcade in E Sx.  The name of Drusilla was not in the family until my GDads sister was called that and I didnt know where the name came from, must have been from their sister in law Drusilla Camfield.  Martha my GDads sister was Martha Clubb. Do you know who the other Martha married? What years dd you know the? Any photographs? Kind regards. Rita

Hampshire & IOW Lookup Requests / Re: BYNG and PETTIGROVE
« on: Wednesday 02 November 11 18:52 GMT (UK)  »
All my info on dead pc...so starting again. Jim and Pheobe lived next door to me in Kent and so sure the two men are cousins. What I did have is lost. I dont need anything on Pettigroves. I would like to know if any children of John would like to get in touch with me as have family photos.  Dick lived with our grandparents and estranged from his family.
The other Pettigrove sister died a few years ago and we found some photos of the family then and I owe it to her to do all I can to find them.

The one thing that I rememeber was that though I knew Thomas as the husband of Eliza.and son Ricahrd Thomas.....when I found details of the marriage it was Ronald H Byng married Sittingbourne Qtr> 1942....but I couldnt find any birth details for a Thomas Byng or a R H Byng?

I think Jim or Thomas dad was Issac..will go onto free site to find any info.
Speak soonest.

Hi
Lydia Emmett, do you know anything about her?  I havent got a thing but its a gypsy name. **
About above:
I have some details on the Emmetts but cant find it at the moment....I do think that if I am right they used that name but were Lees...have them on a census somewhere living in vans and tents near to Ashford. Maybe Charing.I will take a good look later,not much else to do as snow is too deep to drive in. Think a visit to Stow could be on the cards this year then girls, my sister Jo went two years ago but I couldnt get time off work.

Catch you all soon.  PS I am on facebook (There is only one Rita Pettigrove )
