Travelling People / Fletcher(Davis) Forest of Dean
« on: Tuesday 23 January 24 10:39 GMT (UK)  »
Mornin All
Ive seen some articles on The death of Sarah Fletcher Queen of the gypsy tribes of the Forest of Dean 1940s i think?
Her surname prior to marriage was Davis another well known Romany family in the forest ive seen Davis mentioned alongside Fletcher Butler Smith Baldwin etc has anyone by chance traced  Sarahs parents or siblings ever? ive not got ancestry so any look ups or links hints would be great
According to article i see it states her age at death as 100? So much been born 1850s
after visiting me Dad and goin thru old stuff of his i see his Davis family written on bit of paper looks like it contains Merana (Miranda) and Lettice Davis (Lettuce) Davis ?
Many thanks
All the best

Oxfordshire / Padley Chipping Norton
« on: Friday 06 October 23 12:44 BST (UK)  »
Hi All
Im wondering if any kind rootschatters would be good enough to do a couple of look ups for me please?
Im researching My Granddad Anthony John Padleys line from Chipping Norton
He was born in Chippy Dec 26th 1918 to Parents
Percival Padley and Elsie Rosina Clarke
Percy was born chippy 1893 and died 1971
On a tree ive found it has Percys parents as
John James Padley and Annie Padley
Im hoping to find out the parents of John James and Annie Padley if possible?
There is a note on the tree saying James family so im wondering if they used that as Johns middle name? It also has Webb and Fletcher families written on it but not sure who they are or even if theyre linked to them?
Any help with parents of John and Annie would be really appreciated
Many Thanks
Kind Regards
