Hi, Im trying to find the descendants of Alice Jones, born abt 1879, Gorton, Manchester. She was the daughter of George Jones, ( born abt 1845 Ardwick, Manchester), and Sarah ann, ( maiden name unknown), born abt 1845 Ardwick Manchester. Alices siblings were George 1870, Elizabeth 1873, Edward 1875 and Mary E 1877( who married Samuel Latham and had son Arthur Latham born 1898). All were born in Ardwick or Gorton. Alice Jones had an illegitimate son Arthur Jones, born 1902, Ardwick, Manchester( my grandfather). I have the family in 1871, 1891,1901 census. In 1911 census Alice is no longer in the household, although my grandfather Arthur is listed there and obviously being raised by George Jones, his grandfather. Arthur Jones birth certificate only lists his mother, Alice. There is a branch of the family that is unknown and that i am very keen to contact. If you can help, I would be very grateful.

Alison, I hope you don't mind but it makes it a bit easier to digest.

So are you wanting descendants of Arthur, or do you think Alice had other children, or are you hoping to find Arthur's father? Where does this unknown branch come from?

Im hoping to find any branch of the family, hopefully from alices children, if she had any others.
I descend from Arthur as he was my grandfather, but know nothing of his family as he didnt discuss it.
Any descendants of any of the other children, ie George,Elizabeth,Edward and Mary. They must have family to this present day and connected to me via Alice.
