do you have the slightest clue which part of the country the family are from

Hello Sheri - welcome to the boards

any idea when Lucy was born?

Hi, My Grandmother's Mother was Lucy Dyton on her birth certificate but there was confusion with the name, and her Father's last name may be Dithon. His name was James and he was born in 1843. I don't know where he was born. His father was John Dithon and his mother's name was Mary born 1811. Lucy's mother was Ellen born 1844, and her Mother was Agnes Ellen, born 1811, if what I have found is correct. I would love to have their maiden surnames.
The family story is that Lucy was from a Romani/Gypsy family. I have not found any other information about her or her ancestors. I would like to know if anyone else has any info about this family. Thank you!! <3
