Hi,
Today I’ve found a photo of my ancestor Amelia Smith nee Pattenden b. 1829 in East Grinstead ,Sussex in a familytree from Familysearch. I’ve never seen Pictures of my English ancestors. Now I would like to know if there are other pictures of my family maybe on Ancestry or other genealogy websites. If so , please send me the pictures PM.
I would like to know if pictures exist of :
Ellen Eliza Mills b.1877 in Bracknell Berkshire
John Mills b.1854 in East Ilsley Berkshire
Letitia Goddard b.1827in West Ilsley,Berkshire
Herbert Edgar Smith b. Surrey baptised 1867 in Crawley Down,Surrey.
Jessie Cooper b. 1867 Heston,Middlesex
John Cooper b.1836 in Heston ,Middlesex
Mary Underwood b.1840 in Chertsey,Surrey
Elizabeth Peacock b.1851 in Warfield,Berkshire
Joseph Mills b.1824 in East Ilsley,Berkshire

You would need to look all these people up yourself on Ancestry or one of the other subscription sites to get that information.
Many libraries have Ancestry access if you don't want to purchase a subscription.

It pays to do a Google image search. I've found a few photos of ancestors that way.

Hi Jane, I can't help you with photos but I think Letitia Goddard is in my tree. I'll check properly tomorrow, it seems we might have some shared ancestry.
Jane :-) (another one!)

Hi again Jane
My Letitia is a generation or two before yours, but because of the location I suspect if you work your tree back you'll be able to link her in. She married in to my line and I don't have any definite parents or a birthplace for her. I know she had a sister Sarah because shortly after Letitia's death naughty William DARLING, her husband, had a child by that sister, it's there in the PR for all to see! The child was bap in Fawley in 1820, this might be a pointer to the sisters' birthplace. 1841 census has what appears to be a GODDARD family group there, in close proximity to a David DARLING, a man I believe to be the son bap to my William and Letitia in 1819. That David later had a daughter Letitia.
I could of course be seeing connections where none exist, perhaps they all just liked the name!
Best wishes
Jane :-)

Hi,
My Letitia was the daughter of William Goddard and Mary Hitchman. I don’t see a connection to my family . But I think they’re related .
Thank you
Best wishes
Jane
