Found her death. But says she was born in 1911.
Which sounds right.
her name was
Florence marie gasper.

If she lied about her age it's quite a jump.
They didn't come to uk till after my dad came here . Xxx

Thank u Shirley. Aww glad yr in touch with them. It's lovely isn't it when we find family members no matter how we r connected ......xxx

That might be my nan but I'm sure she was born about 1903 or there abouts. And she was florence gasper......as my pop (grandad) was gasper.....
Does it say they had children ?
Strange
Yes she came to uk with benniah .

That's my dad Shirley that's the ship he came here with.
He came with his friend George hardaker whom I did find :-D :-D
But unfortunately my dad had passed away when I found him....
but am in touch with his daughter who is so lovely....

Just that my nans info seems to be nowhere. Cannot fingers anything on her.
She was Italian . I'm sure. But u could be right. Xxxxx

Shirley here's the link to the other thread for you to have a look :-)

The only thing i can add is that some of the references on India records ( on FMP) to Rosario surname seem to suggest it may be Portuguese.

I had one similar and the connection was wayyyyy back
The connection was through the widow who married my grt x 3 grandfather in 1850 and one of their children who I am descended from and a descendent from her first marriage who the connection is descended from


Shows it works though

If you want to give some names and approximate dates and places of birth then I can see what I can find.

You really need to buy certificates so that you know you are following the correct family.
