Hi,,
some of us have black sheep now that we don't want, my daughter was murdered in march by her husband, he was convicted in september and sentenced to life imprisonment, for my two little grandaughters this has been horrific and they will probably never get over it, however I found a murder in my family in 1882 and was fascinated by it, no doubt iin 200 years time my descendants will be fascinated by my daughters murder, it's just human nature.

Claydon is a traveller name and Clayton, it might just be a variation of one of these.

Hi, according to the book of Bob. Williams is a gypsy name, I have a Jane Williams she says born Launceston Cornwall, however I cannot find a baptism in Launceston around that time 1798-1800, my grandad always said that his mother, Jane's daughter spoke Spanish, however I'm wondering if she actually spoke Romany and Jane taught it to her. Does anyone on here have any Williams connections? and maybe point me in the right direction. Thank you.
