Andrew and Piper Families
« on: Monday 20 September 10 05:03 BST (UK) »
I am searching for the families of John Andrews (b. 1882) and Edith Maude Andrews (nee Piper) (b. abt 1882).

John's father's name was Thomas and Maude's father's name was Alfred.

Thanks  ;D

Hi again, Thomas, Mary A  and John disappear on the 1901, unless someone can spot them, as far as the maiden name of Mary Ann ie Penk I think that possibly it will be PINK, as on 1861 RG09/2003/57/37 is a Mary Ann Pink b Wolverhampton Father a Blacksmith!
The only problem is that her yob is at variance with the later census returns, see what you think.
