Member Since: February 2005 Posts: 11 Send Message	thanks for info from1911 cencus did find this. george was born in nottingham-this is from where he went to london.he was my husbands maternal grandfather. his only daughter left has no papers and does not know that much about him because he didn't talk much about his early life.there is a story that he could have been related to gypsies. anything at all about his family and ancesters would be welcome.

	Well, I do love spending my time "finding" things that people already know - when they ask for "any info" and don't disclose the info they have ... I guess what you need to do is get the parents' marriage certificate to learn their fathers' names, find them in censuses before marriage ... etc. etc. Like we all do! Lee is in fact a common name among travellers/Roma. If you trace the family back, you may find that to be the case.
