Hi Marona,

I should have realized when I saw the name R Schatten under both photos.

Anyway had a quick look about again and found this

The third post from June 2009 has been done by a Price, so he is obviously related to you somewhere down the line and hopefully he may be able to help you.

 The Lee's were friends of mine  :) Used to visit them when they visited Portsmouth. This'd be back around thirty five years ago. Ron' was the elder man back then. Lovely guy.

 Got to know some of the Price's too. Peter or Paul, can't remember now. But, he showed me some photo's of his people. Ones we now see in books and on web sites, captioned " The Price Family On The Road ". Procession of vardo's.

 Good people, all.

Thanks Nettie for that link, I got in touch with Ricky and I am just awaiting to hear from him now. Have we contacted each other before because you stated " I should have realized".....I am sorry if I do not remember you.
Thanks Rammona

Hi Rammona,

In answer to your question, no we havent been in contact with each other before, so no apology needed. Its just that I saw the name Schatten under the photos and assumed it was yourself.

Your welcome to the link, I know how frustrating it can be trying to find family members, no matter how distantly related they are to you. I do hope that the young Mr Price makes contact with you soon.

Hi, I just read your reply, sorry for not responding earlier. No I have not seen that book, I have many Roma books but not that one. I will go on E-bay and see how much it is selling for. I just received a great book by Fred Price about Roma, alot of my family are in there but I only recognize one aunt and her husband and family.
Thanks once again for the reference :}
