Matthias Family Photos

[mr angry]

We have a very limited amount of photographs of the Matthias side of our family as my nan Jessie Farmer (formerly Rogers but her birth surname was Matthias) never really spoke of her family. She got the surname Rogers when she was adopted by her aunt who was called Eliza Ann Matthias who had married Robert Rogers. In total we only have 3 photos of this side of the family all of them including my nan Jessie. If anyone has any other photos of the Matthias' feel free to share them on here, it would be great to see them all.

This is a photo of my nan Jessie (on the far left) with her adoptive parents, Eliza Ann Rogers (formerly Matthias) on the far right holding a baby, her adoptive dad Robert Rogers holding the other baby (who were twins). Also in the picture are two of Eliza's and Roberts sons, the tall lady behind my nan is called Freda who was married to Bob Rogers and she is the mother of the twins. We are unsure of who the young girl is in the front of the picture.

Um ... that's me.

When I can get to the scanner I'll post a few of the photos I have of the Mathias family.
I have a few recorded off already, so I'll get them on here when I have a chance.

Father's side of the family seem to be all over the place, but I have heard very little of Mother's side, the Mathias family.

We wondered for ages who the girl was, now its nice to know that it was you!
