I managed to find my Great Great Grandmother on here, but lost it before I could get the index numbers. I have gone through the census again but can't find it.
Her name was CAROLINE EMILY SIMMONS nee HALE. She married my Gt Gt Grandfather William James Simmons. They had my Great Grandmother BESSIE SIMMONS on 9/11/1908 at Goldsmiths Row.
CAROLINE had other children called, CAROLINE, ADA, ALBERT,SIDNEY, plus others then I lost them. The address was 77 Ely Place, London.

Is it possible someone could get them back for me as I was trying to find all the children then work back from the Hales, I would really appreciate it <3

Hi Jax, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR SUPPORT, THE MEMBERS ON HERE ARE VERY KIND. I'm new to this and don't have access all area's as yet. It sounds like my Gt Gt Grandfather as he had a stall selling fruit ,veg and nuts etc He was also a Perlie King.
The Family also lived around Hoxton.
But my Great Grandmother BESSIE'S birth cert says 9th Nov 1908 and she was born at 57 Belmont Mansions, Goldsmiths Row.
I realize Albert and sydney probably were not born yet.
I tried going through my previous look ups again but no joy.
My other Gt Gt Grandparents had 16 children, I know there was no t.v back then but that's outrageous. Lee <3 <3

Thank you so much Jax, this was the one I lost and my printer is not working so having to write it all down. I'm not sure if my lap is saving it either lol. I believe this is my Gt Grandmother x3. That's so sad all those babies lost especially when you see Death age 0 <3 <3
