All I can tell you Jackielegs is that Ellen Wigglesworth-Clarkson was my maternal grandmother's neice.  Ellen's father was a Joseph Wigglesworth and was married to Emily Clarkson (my gran's sister).  Joseph, shortly after his marriage to Emily had an affair with Emily's sister - Fanny Clarkson and as a result, Ellen was born.  I do not have the date of Ellen's death, but, as you know she went to Australia and died there.  Sorry, but I have been having a rest from doing my tree for a long time, so my memory of all this isn't too good at the moment.

Am researching my paternal ancestors named Wright from Harrogate.  If anyone has Wrights from there in their tree, would love to hear from you.

Robert Tyzack's sister, Mary Ann Tyzack, born December 1850 (same name as Frederick's mother) was my maternal gt grandmother.

Hi Wombo.  I honestly have done no more research into this for ages.  All the info I have is that Hannah was born in 1849 in Newcastle-upon-Tyne, Northumberland.  Robert was born 1853 in Scarcroft, Yorkshire and died in Victoria, Australia in 1941.  If there are any questions you need answering about their ancestors, please ask.  The parents of Hannah and Robert were Frederick Charles Tyzack, born 1826 and Eliza Margerrison, also born 1826.  Frederick, as far as I can tell was the illegitimate son of a Mary Ann Tyzack.

I started a thread way back in 2006 entitled 'Illegitimate Child'.  I would dearly like to find it again and post a link to it or bring it back to the top for another RootChat member to see.  It was in the West Yorkshire section.  Please can somebody help me to find it.  The member I would like to see it is connected to me and would be interested to read it.
