Hi,
This may be a very long shot but you never know.
Is there anybody here who is related to a Mrs Elizabeth Roberts (Nee. Fone) 1886-1967 of Stoke-on-Trent, maybe a great grandchild or nephew or other distant relative?
I've been trying to find out about her as she is my great great aunty but she seems to be a complete mystery. My dad who would have been 18 at the time of her death had never heard of her nor had he ever heard his dad mention an aunty Elizabeth at all which I find very odd.
The info I have on her is that she was born to Thomas William Fone and Eliza Ann Finney in 1886 and grew up in Normacot Road, Longton with her siblings including my great granddad William Fone (1878-1948). She married a John Roberts in 1911 and it looks as though they had several children and, I assume, grandchildren which is what prompted me to put this shout out in case any of them were active on here at all.
I recently took a stab at finding her final resting place when I noticed a burial record for Hartshill cemetery for a grave marking 2 Roberts burials with dates that match my known dates from death records. I even found the part of the cemetery where the grave is located but have not been able to find the headstone.
Any information would be welcome.
