I have Agnes Ann Ringwood Nee Mitchell died 1976 Q3 Grimsby
dob 7/7/1881, married John William Ringwood 1900 Grimsby, father John Christopher a labourer, wits John C Mitchell which was probably her brother,

1901c Agnes Ringwood living Grimsby with neice Helen Bentham age 5. I have found a Fred Bentham marraige to a Sarah Mitchell but cannot find a connection Agnes.

1891c Agnese Mitchell living parish Clee with Weelsby with brother John and relatives Matilda Dench (Aunt).

As I have not found Agnes living with her parents at any time I am struggling to piece it all together.

Anyone help please.

Thanks Meg

Hi Glitter Baby

Thanks for that, the marriage for Eliza Rebecca Siddle and John Christopher Mitchell is definatetly
right I have the details, and witnesses to this marriage were Elizabeth Wright and Thomas Ringwood, John William Ringwoods brother.

I don't think this John Christopher Mitchell is Agnes father though, he was a fisherman. On both marriages for John and Agnes Mitchell father is down as labourer.

Can any find a John Mitchell with sister Matilda.

Thanks

Meg

Hi Glitter Baby

No I hadn't seen that one, don't know why. Looks like thats the John Mitchell I am looking for, he was my husbands GGG Grandfather. I wonder why they had sent Agnes away to Grimsby at such a young age, and why Agnes's niece Helen Bentham was sent to livewith her.

Still can't find a connection though for Helen's Mother Sarah and Agnes, thought they were sisters?

Thanks Gliiter Baby

Do you ever sleep?
