Hello
Thank you for the input.  I have not been on here for a while so need to go over the Notes. But from memory I have the same children but have John Bird married to an Ann Thurnell. 

Very interesting about the other Ann's though, will go over the old notes and check. 

Thank you for your help

Glamorganshire / Re: LONG Ann of Merthyr Tydfil is it the correct one?

Thank you Mabel
I have not been on here for a while.  I did get the Death Certificate but it did not help as no next of kin or address.  Says she was a Widow which does not fit.
Ann's niece was imprisoned for stealing boots as well, though in later years she did turn over a new leaf.
I suspect mine was the Ann Long sentenced to Jail.

The Common Room / Re: whats your reason?

Thank You GS  :)
After trying all the usual ways and others, found no trace of GGM. Found most of her Family but not with any of them. No distant cousins I found had heard of her.
I finally sent off for a Death Certificate for her young Nephew. The reason being his Father was a Publican and thought there might be an address of a Pub that could help.
Not holding much hope. 
Success!! my Great Grandmother was the informant of the Death!  She had crossed through her maiden name and put the surname of her common-law Husband.
Turns out a couple of years after putting my Grandmother in the Home she took up with a married man and had another daughter!  The daughters birth was not registered. Never Married.

1901 Census no sign of her and the 2nd daughter and the Father was with his Wife and Children.
 On the 1911 Census  She is with her 2nd daughter and the Father but put a different Christian name and knocked 6 years off her age.  Place of birth correct though :)
 I had come across the 2nd daughter several times before but could not link her to the Family.  Had I checked all through the Electoral Register years, I would have found my Great Grandmother living with her. 

Sorry a bit long winded but it might help someone. 
regards Reyz :)
