sisters - Margaret Keopky and Florence Jenkins b Swansea 1877 and 1881
« on: Tuesday 04 April 17 19:55 BST (UK) »
These two ladies (my great aunts) have proved very difficult to track down....in my family history researches.  However....today some information has come to light stating that both ladies went to Scotland to live.....Stirling apparently..   A long shot I realise but would any posters to this board have information (anything really!) which would help me to pinpoint their whereabouts at long last :)  I have my fingers crossed....

Are these sisters married as there doesn't appear to be any reference to a Margaret Keopky born 1877, Swansea?  ???

Margaret was Jenkins before she married William Keopky in 1922......she was widdowed in 1929  and I understand she travelled to Scotland with her unmarried sister Florence and settled in Stirling.   :)
