Was it normal for people to travel around so much back then , my great aunt from my grans side said she thought they might have been gypsys

ErikaH

ErikaH Report 2 Dec 2013 21:17

People had to go where the work was..........just as they do now

But......the distances are not that great..............

Any thoughts on the 1911?

Andrew

Andrew Report 2 Dec 2013 21:26

That's very interesting the 1911 must be my great grandad sister , i see Mary Stevens was a widow by then so john must have died young
