Barry Report 20 Feb 2012 16:12

My Great Grandmother was Edith Florence Lovell BC 1891 In Worle, weston super mare.

Im not quite sure of her siblings names but her parents were Alfred BC 1855 and Elizabeth BC 1857 (nee Adams).

I know they lived in milton park road (tourainee), weston super mare. Edith was a dress maker and i think 2 of her sisters were apprentice dress makers. Im trying to find living relatives as I know there were a lot of Lovells in Weston super mare and Worle.

Edith married Albert Henry Gibbs and one of there sons Albert John Gibbs (BC 1919) was my Grandfather. I really want to trace to living generations.

There were rumours of some of her brothers moving to the cardiff area. My Lovells were manly stone masons/carpenters/building trade I Beleive

Have you looked in 'search trees'?

It's the best place to start
