Title: Looking for Annie & Bessies parents
Post by: Muffin41 on Sunday 23 July 17 15:34 BST (UK)
Who were the parents of Annie SEWRY born 4q 1895 Guildford 2a 53 and Bessie SEWRY born 2q 1898 Guildford 2a 60?

GRO births has their mother name as BAKER, could be William & Jane SEWRY. I have not found a wedding for them yet, the family lived in Worplesdon near Guildford.

Thank you again Rosie, you have found more than I had hoped for.

The surname variations got me stumped. ;D ;D

I cheated & searched for Mary Goddard with Thomas no surname & Guildford  ;D  I can understand how they got Surcy it just needed a badly written 'e'

And I thought it was our local dialect misinterpreted by the enumerator. ;D ;D ;D

Thanks again for your help Rosie. :D

It is strange really as I never consider I have a 'local dialect' unlike OH who comes from 'up north' I suppose I must have  ;D
