Hello.
I am a South London Liffen.
I too found that it was difficult at first but there are some very kind and helpful people on RootsChat.
They have helped me go back a while but sadly my tree has stopped.
Feel free to reply if I can be of any help.
Regards
Henry Liffen

Hello Sarah
I would be very interested to know the names of your father and grandfather.
Definitely certain that GGF was Frederick Liffen, b1894 d1951.
Then I believe his father was Frederick Liffen . Born 1860 to 1938. Lots of Fredericks make it confusing although members on Rootschat have helped me. Have a search for "southlondon Liffen" I haven't been on the tree for a while though.
Does this help?

Hello John.
Yes I am still a member on Rootschat. Thank you very much for contacting me. It seems that both our GrandFathers were brothers?
Where do you live John and where were you born?
regards
HL

Thank you both for your prompt replies.
Am I correct in thinking that Adelaide was originally married to Thomas Hileard and they had a daughter Adelaide when she was only 15 yoa?
Presumably when Adelaide met Frederick ;Thomas was no longer around? And they never married?
Thanks for your help it's much appreciated.

Thank you AVm228 for your reply. I also came to the same conclusion that I had ordered the wrong one.
I have had more information come from a family member very recently which will help.
My GF Frederick married Mary Law April -June 1917 St Olave district.. We know that she died in 1963 and was born around 1895. My Aunt Mary who has just died told me that her mother was Mary Law. I've only just remembered this when my memory was jogged.
My GF Frederick certainly died in 1951 as Aunt Mary readily remembered it was in the year of the 1951 Great Exhibition.
I remember as a child that My GM Mary Liffen lived in Avondale House Avondale Sq London which is confirmed by my cousin and on the Electoral Roll between 1948-1957.My Father Harry appears on the Roll there too.
Mary Liffen nee Law and Frederick appear on the 1936 Electoral roll at 169 Tooley St SE1. I again know this to be true as I showed my Aunt Mary the property on Google Street view.
Regarding Alice Beatrice Oates, I came across her whilst working on the tree and I asked my recently deceased Aunt Mary who she was but she had no idea. She had a very strong memory right until her passing so I've no idea who she was yet only lived a mile or so from them all!
Thank you for your help and any further assistance would be very much appreciated.

An addition to my last post-there was also a Napier Street near Long Lane in Bermondsey which is the area where they all seemed to live but the registration district was Deptford (and there was a Napier St there too).
