I've had a quick reply from the tree on Ancestry's Contributor - who said they would help and told them your messages etc are on Rootschat Gloucestershire.

Hello, my name is Laura and I have a Beatrice Blanche Eliza Mountstevens in my family tree. I don't believe this is the person you are looking for as her father is Walter and her mother was Mary Ann Granfield. If you find that you need my info on the above please let me know.

Unless I am reading  the birth registrations from a previous thread incorrectly i.e.

John & Emma MOUNTSTEVENS - children

Walter : 1851
James : 1852
Charlotte : 1854
Abel : 1856
Richard : 1859
Blanch : 1864  - mother of Albert Victor STRANGE
Harry Edward : 1866
Minnie : 1867


? assume Walter and Blanch are brother and sister

Thanks but does anyone know if this family is part of the bakery owners in Bristol
My father in law always said we had some connection to them
