1841 SIMS at GROVE
« on: Saturday 03 December 05 16:33 GMT (UK) »
Hello,

Could anybody please help with 1841 details. Looking for JOHN SIMS aged approx 67 (possibly a Dairyman), wife ELIZABETH aged approx 62, & any family. Living at GROVE, WANTAGE.

They were my 4XGt Grandparents, and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Alan.

Hello Angie,

MANY THANKS for this information. It is most useful.
I think Edward must be a Grandson.

Best wishes, Alan.

Hello Angie,

THANKS AGAIN. That's fine.
I thought at first you meant Wokingham, near Bracknell.
Must admit I didn't realise that any area of Grove / Wantage was called Wokingham.
That's something else I've learnt.
Best wishes, Alan.

That's weird - Wokingham and Wantage are not really near one another.  I've looked at the map and from local knowledge as well I'm not aware of a Grove near Wokingham or a Wantage near Wokingham.

I think we need behindthefrogs - I think he lives in Wokingham!
