Lancashire / Griffith Roberts
« on: Thursday 27 October 22 12:50 BST (UK)  »
I know this a longshot, but... Trying to trace a Griffith Roberts, former RN officer invalided out of service after being traumatised in Gallipoli campaign in First World War. He died late 1940s or early 1950s.  His last known address was 149 Grove Street, Liverpool.

Here's hoping.

Could any kind soul with access to 1911 census tell me who was living at 87 Ennismore Road, Old Swan, Liverpool, in that year. Grateful for any help.

The only information I have is that the mass burial grave site was where Liverpool Womens Hospital stood/stands. Still following this up .

Thanks guys, but I'm still sceptical on these claims

The Common Room / Royal connections

An ongoing puzzle for me - how come so many 'celebrities' appearing on television ancestry programmes are told they are related to royalty/aristocracy and have their ancestry traced back centuries even into the 'dark ages'.  I have so fare been unable to trace my common ancestry back further than the 1600s. Records beyond that are impossible to find, if they even exist.
Just asking.

Kent / St Mary's gravestones
« on: Friday 12 August 22 14:33 BST (UK)  »
Can anyone help me - I have a family story of many gravestones (including that of a Kite ancestor) at St Mary's (?)  Church, Dover, were placed up against the church wall for some reason - road widening etc?. Trying to verify or disprove this.
