Find Ancestors

Will do - and thanks for the advice. I'll see if I can get hold of Lesley.

Just to mention, Antonio (Athony) definitely had a son called George, as my wife remembers him and 'Uncle Charlie' (both would have been her great uncles, of course).

As I say, it's George (b 1839) who I'm keen to find out more about, but I'll certainly talk to Lesley if I can.

Hi Simon. Welcome to the boards.

This is a very old thread and Lesley might not be still following it. If you click on her name, you can send her a personal message. If she still has the same email address GR will advise her.

Hi peeps,

I'm married into the Lewis family (George Lewis, b 1839) as per above, as I married his great, great grand daughter, and I'm trying my best to piece together the family background with a view to pursuing it back to Greece!

I can tell you that little Antonio (b 1889) married Martha Ineson in 1917, and had 3 sons, one of whom (Anthony Lewis b1921) had 2 more sons, one of whom was *another* Anthony Lewis (b 1942) who is my wife's dad.

I've got all this documented, but any more family links would be gratefully accepted as my wife's dad was knocked out today when I was able to present him with a transcript of conversations I've on Rootschat.com - which I wholeheartedly recommend as a site BTW.

Looking forward to reading more!

Cheers,
Simon

The family seemed to have disappeared of the face of the earth in 1901. I'm wondering if they went back to Ireland or even Greece!

Once again i thank you this is all new information, You done so much for me bless you.

This could be her birth registration, but you'd need to purchase the certificate to be sure

Name: Florence Lewis
Year of Registration: 1880
Quarter of Registration: Jul-Aug-Sep

I've just had a look at the 1891 image. Eugene is 14 and also born in Ireland. Florence is actually 10, not 14 and she and her younger siblings where all born in Liverpool. The youngest child is actually Antonio.

The information you gave me with george jane etc and their occupations is fantastic. Thank you so much your a star

The marriage in 1900 includes another couple on the same page as Arthur and Florence and isn't relevant. If you want to order the cert, go to www.gro.gov.uk, it will cost £7. 8b 51 is the GRO index reference (Volume 8b, page 51).
