Hi there,

I have just seen your attached photo and I think the gentleman could be one of my nanny's brothers. Your research seems to be following very close to my family line. With your interest in the Webb line can I ask if you are based overseas?

this is exciting.

Thanks Suz, that's great.
Its so exciting this family history stuff, cant believe we have such stung Yorkshire links this will be news for the whole family.

I think the travelling element of my family comes from the Wilson side when Fanny (Wilson) married Arthur Skelton.

Fanny's mother Hannah Burnside married Andrew Wilson.

Many thanks for your help.
Sam

Hi i am new to the forum, and iam trying to find out some info on my family and if the Cooper were also a travelling family along with the Wilsons:

Andrew Skelton (My Great Grandfather) - Married Amy Eldridge

Andrew Skelton parents - were Arthur born 1869 and Fanny Skelton (her maiden name was Wilson)

Arthurs Skelton parents were George born 1832 and Emma Skelton (her maiden name was Cooper)

Emma Cooper parents were Samuel (1814-1883) and Ellen
Samuel Cooper parents were Willian Cooper (1790-1855) and Charlotte ( Maiden name Barker)

Any help would be great.

Hi I am new to Rootschat and my family links into the Wilson's and Burnsides tree. My Great Great Grandmother was Fanny Wilson (married name Skelton). Fanny Married Arthur Skelton and had a son Andrew Skelton. Andrew Skelton Married Amy Eldridge and they had a daughter Marjorie (my nan). My nan Marjorie was still travelling until the 1960s when the family settled in East Sussex.

I understand that Bella is my Great Great Grandmothers sister which is exciting and I now know that my 4x Great Grandmother is Hannah Wilson (maiden named Burnside).

If anyone has any information to help to add to my family research that would be great. I would love to see a copy of the photograph of Hannah Burnisde which I believe exists.

Thanks
Sam
