Hello!

I'm trying to find the 'Green' branch of my family tree - they are causing me trouble!

I have so far John Green (b.c1870) and married Charlotte ??? (b.c1870) we think they may have lived in Wadbourgh, Worchestershire. they had 3 sons as far as we know - Christopher (b.c1890), unknown (b.c1895) and George (b.1895).

George Green married Lily Drinkwater (b.1897) and had 6 children (Vera, Victor, Roland (known as Frank), Sidney, Raymond & Marina), by this time they lived in Upton Snodsbury with the births registered in Pershore.

This is my mother's maiden name and so would love to be more successful with my research, any help will be greatly appreciated!

You don't make clear what you are hoping for..........

Do you wish to trace ancestors?

sorry! got a bit too involved with getting all the details in.

I'm interested in anything going really, ancestors and decendants, we're quite stumped with the whole family as no-one seems to have stayed in touch and passed on information

This MAY be the right marriage..........

Marriages Dec 1891 (>99%)

Collins Charlotte Droitwich 6c 673
Dyson William Charles Droitwich 6c 673
Green John Droitwich 6c 673
Lamb Emma Droitwich 6c 673

Cross-refer with the FREE 1881 to see if Charlotte's birthplace and birth year match

Descendants are less easy...............

yeah, i though perhaps a decendant might read the notice and recognise the information and get in touch ... a very hopeful approach!

Thank you so much for your help with the census', i keep trying to get to the national archives again but other things keep getting in the way :o(

Thank you again!
