HI Copeland
I am researching the families "LOCK" & "BOSWELL" who were Travelling Gypsies I can find them on the census for Wales 1901 but cannot find them anywhere else, any information on them would be very much appreciated.
Regards
Pughy

you will find locks in most cencuses and definately in nailsea/bristol/glosoucester.boswells is a very common traveller name aswell and you should find some in most cencuses.look on romanygenes blank page web site.alot on there.alot of locks and boswells also went to america.there is a thread on here by don lock for american gypsies aswell and on romanygenes 2  hope that helps.try different spellings aswell like adding an e on lock.e.g.locke.regards cathayb

  Hi could someone please help me i'm trying to find my great grandmother Gracy Paulo (Pauls)  I've got a record of her on 1881 census living with her parents Caroline and Henry Pauls and her siblings Henry Pauls Frank Pauls and Caroline Pauls they were circus people Gracy was born in abt 1876in Bristol Somerset but cant find record of her birth.  In 1881 they were living in a caravan in Sandy Pit Lane Aldershot Hampshire. I have found out on 1891 census that Caroline Pauls (mother ) married again to a Horatio Lewis living with daughter Caroline and son Frank Paulo and 2 of Horatio's daughters at St Philip in Barton Regis but i can't find the father Henry, Gracy, or son Henry. No record on any census for any of them anywhere till 1901 census when she was married to my grandad William Joseph Peach. Cant find any marriage details of any or births am really stuck so would be grateful for any help thankyou

You should post this query over at www.fun-fairs.co.uk/forum/index.ph (go to the CIRCUS forum) as I'm sure Tom Sandow or David Konyot would set you straight on the Paulos and answer some of your questions ? Good Luck
