Looking for family of my grandfather and grandmother. His name was James Alwyn Annable and my grandmothers name was Lillian Thompson [nee] bean. They had a large family and my father was adopted out when he was a young child. He changed his name and moved to Australia. I know both James and Lillian were married to other people before and after my father was born. Thanks Dawnie..

Is this him?

I have tracked down a couple of relatives. I know James and Lillian were not married to each other but between all of them had at least 21 children. I know james had ex wives and Lillian had other husbands. I would like to know more about what their lives and their parents lives would have been like. Who my relatives are and who do I look like.. Thanks Dawnie

Thank you for the info. My dad was born Leonard Annable Thompson. His mother had other babies named with other surnames.. Brinkley berry or bean along side Thompson. He changed his name when he was older..I don’t think he liked his Mum because he never spoke of her much. Thank Dawnie..

What I find interesting is the occupation of the families.. mining is in the blood.

Well, there is obviously some connection to this family as it has all the names in it :

This is SUCH a confusing family - I have quite forgotten what it is I am looking for :-S :-D

What is it that you already know Dawnie and what exactly do you hope to find out please?

Dea x

This is her then - daughter of Edith and George just before their marriage:

Which brings us back to this birth posted above by Alviegal :

BEAN, LILIAN MAY BINKLEY -
GRO Reference: 1899 J Quarter in MANSFIELD Volume 07B Page 120

and Erika's previously posted 1916 marriage for Lilian M B Bean to Ambrose Thompson.

Wow..I am now really confused. I was just looking for family members of my dad side of my family. He left England and didn’t really talk much about his life in England. I am not sure if his family even remember him. I was so long ago. He was put up for adoption and the brothers and sister were split up. I know Mum and dad spoke of Sutton in Ashfield where they used to live.. I have not known grand parents or cousins. I know James had more children after he was born. He was born in 1930. Thanks Dawnie.

Yes - he was registered as Leonard Thompson and also as Leonard Annable - the mother's maiden name for both being Binkley.
