Hi there Sue - welcome to the boards :-)

would have been better to make just the one posting as they both concern the same family - things might get messy

have sent you some info by message as they may be living people

I wonder if anyone can help me. I'm trying to find my paternal grandmother Florence Goddard. Florence(born may 1900) married my Grandfather, John Orritt in 1934 in Southport and mentions her fathers name as William Goddard, deceased. I have no idea where Florence came from.
I have always been told that Florence was a twin and that when she was about 12 her Mother, Father and twin sister went out in a pony and trap. Unfortunately the trap overturned, killing all three, leaving Florence an orphan. She was then brought up by someone else. She suffered from epilepsy brought on apparently by the tragedy.
I wondered if possibly Florence had been christened a different surname and brought up by someone (william) with the surname Goddard after the incident, or maybe it is just a story to cover up the fact that my grandmother became epilectic at the age of 12!!! or that something more sinister happened in the family.
If anyone can help I would be most grateful
