This blog is designed to record the findings of our family history, mainly for the benefit of the family, and to document the dead ends, the breakthroughs and the journey.
I’ll post the family stories as I’ve written them to now, and I’ll be grateful to anyone who can add further information or pictures, or point out errors.
Particular thanks to my sister Julia and my cousin Mandy who between them have done much more of the work than I have.

An update on Ann Worrall








As I get going again, I've looked at my file on Ann and discovered that I had sent for a marriage certificate. It shows that she married James Timmins on 18th July 1855, but if I have the right marriage they already had 6 children at that stage. We know that James’s wife Ann’s maiden name was Worrall because it is given clearly on the birth certificates of her children Cornelius and Eliza Jane. And the father’s name is given correctly as James. So I'm pretty sure that I have the right person and we shall never know why they married so late.

I'll leave them there and move on to next great great grandparent, who will be Thomas Cotterill.
