Title: Help With Family Living in Blofield, Norfolk
Post by: AuntyGene on Thursday 27 February 14 09:29 GMT (UK)
Hi

I am wondering if someone can help me find out more details on this family?

Sidney George Patterson was 1909 in Blofield, Norfolk and on 25 July 1934, he married at the registry office in Blofield, Norfolk, Susan Wilhelmina Rooney O'Neill Born 1913 in Ireland.
I have found the parents of Sidney, they are:
George Albert Patterson Born 1885 died 1956 and Laura Ellen Dingle Born 1890 died 1966

Sidney was a musician, he played clarinet in a well known band (I assume one of the big band sounds?)

My problem is I cannot find the parents of Susan. Obviously they came from Ireland and I do not know which county or when they came across.  Sidney and Susan had a daughter Shirley Wilhelmina Patterson, born 18 August 1939 in Yorkshire. I am not sure if they had more children.  Shirley married John Edward Smith, who I think came from London.

So any help at all please with any more info on this family.

Thank you!

Aunty Gene

Hello Trish
Thank you for your message, this has truly amazed me as I have been on the Belfast forum trying to find out information regarding my family and they sent me the link to rootschat. Shirley had 6 children. She also had a sister Dorothy who lived in Suffolk and a brother Sidney who lived in gorleston. I was brought up in Winterton-on-Sea as an only child. Kind regards louise
