1870s onward - Seeley Family - in particular Ada and Frances - Romford, Essex -

[samanthator]

Hi

Ada and Frances are sisters of my Great-Grandmother Fanny Elizabeth (1861-1952) and I am hoping to find out more information about them.  Ada was born in Q4 1872 and Frances was born in Q2 1875.  However I have no further knowledge about them unfortunately.

Their parents are Thomas (1892-1942) and Sarah Ann Scott (1841-1924) and the other children in the family are - Mary Ann (1860-1942), Amy Matilda (1864-1948), emily (1867-1927), James Henry (1871-1958), Arthur (1878-1928) and George who was born and died in 1881.

Any help would be very gratefully received as although I belong to Ancestry, I think church records for Essex are held by FindMyPast and I would like to know if either married or when they died and where.

Thank you for bothering to read my look-up request.

 Their parents are Thomas (1892-1942) and Sarah Ann Scott (1841-1924
is correct as parents there is a big discrepancy in ages unless I am mistaken

Easily found if this is the right child, born 1875 died 1880 Frances Seeley Romford, she does not appear on 1881 so I can only assume this death is correct
