Hello,
Is there anybody out there who can help me find my Paternal Grandmother Sarah Elizabeth Hudson born April 30th 1899 in Hampstead.
So far I have managed to cobble together as much information as I can,but with a quite fractious family it is pretty difficult to get any information on my ancestors on my Fathers side.
So far I have managed to establish the fact that she was born in 1899 to a Mary Elizabeth Hudson who I think originated in Marston Moretain in Bedfordshire, She firstly married an Edgar Tooley in September 1918 in Willesden,Middlesex,England.
And they had a daughter called Phylis May Tooley who was born about 1919 and died from what I think was the Spanish Flu Pandemic, and Edgar Tooley died the following year from either war wounds received whilst in active service during the Great War 1914-1918 or was it the Spanish Flu that part I have not been unable to uncover.
She then married my paternal Grandfather Stanley Froome Burrows in June 1924 in Willesden,Middlesex,England and they had 9 children between them of which there is only 1 of the children remaining My uncle Leonard Charles Michael Burrows who I had contact with up to about 1992.
Unfortunately I lost contact with my Fathers family due to my sister not giving the details as she promised about as to where they were and whether they were still alive.
I am the the son of Frank Edwin Burrows and Violet Edwards the 4th eldest child of Stanley and Sarah Hudson and I am quite desperate to try and restablish closer ties with my fathers last remaing sibling,but despite several attempts to find him I hit a brick wall.
If there is any person out there who can help I would appreciate all the information that could give on my Grandmother because I have just come to a halt when it comes to that part of my family if it helps on the Marriage certificate I have managed to get it mentions a Frank Hudson but despite several promising leads it transpires it is not the person I am looking for.
My wife managed to make contact with a member of the Hudson family that had moved to Canada many years ago and was able to give us some help,and she said she was in contact with a closer relative of mine who also lives in I believe Ontario Canada and her name before she married was Linda Maria Burrows daughter of Leonard Burrows and Linda Burrows nee Walker.
Thanks
Philip Burrows
