Hi,
I am trying to find anyone living who is related to the Wigmore family who lived in Bristol, then moved to Cardiff around 1886??

The names of the children were William born 1864 ( Weston S Mare) - Sarah A born 1867, Elizabeth born 1869, Frederick born 1872, Mary Ann born 1875, Hannah born 1876, Maria born 1882,(all born Bristol) - Lillian born 1888 (Cardiff)

Mary Ann is the one I really want info on.

Many thanks
Sally

Have you looked to see if Mary Ann (or the others) are in anyone's tree on here?

If so, you can then attempt to make contact with them for more information.

Hello,

Brummiejan, many thanks for your info.

Patchem, Yes Elias is the father, I have looked on Ancestry, and I have contacted the person with the tree, but he does not know anymore than I do !!!!!!!

Reggie, yes I have tried various means, Ancestry, Freebmd, 192.

I am trying to find anyone who knows about Mary Ann and her family, when she married.

Regards
Sally

So, are you saying that the info posted above is NOT the right woman?

Do you have a copy of the marriage cert?

Not sure what you're looking for....................

Hi Reggie,

Many thanks for the reply.

YES it is the correct Mary Ann.

I am trying to find living relations from the Wigmore family, who may know something regarding Mary Ann.

I know it is a long shot, as I have tried various ways.

Sorry maybe I wasn't very clear with my first message.

Sally :-S

Well, three of her children died young, but that doesn't stop you from looking for their offspring, and following-through on them.............
