i dont understand? i got APPLEY H but nothing else no maiden name and thats what i want

Thats what we are looking for but her name is a bit of a muddle at the moment, be patient and you may see if we can find her.Since you havent told us where they lkived we havent gor much to go on.

What dont you understand Lisa? Lindsey has found her on the census records so at least you now know where she was born. If you want her maiden name you will have to be patient so researchers can try to work it out for you!

i just didnt understand the stuff that was shown i know i have to be patient but when your own family wont tell you anything at all its so frustrating and im having to rely on strangers it just dont seem right

We all have to rely on strangers at some point when researching, there comes a point when the family dont actually know anything. As you can see Lindsay has found her in quite a few census records so far so she's getting nearer to pinning her down.

APPLEY H was born in BASCHURH in SHROPSHIRE

my family do know though its just the fact that they dont want me to do one my nan said that id drag up som ehorrible stuff, my dad wont even tell me who his father is so iv had to get his birth cert and that tells me nothing either they just wont tell me anything i actually started doing my tree in 2006 but i got nowhere and a few weeks ago i had to delete my tree as the info i got of my nan was wrong and i did a tree for a completely different family

could this be her

my nan was adopted by her grandmother and she cant or wont even tell me anything about her

Hey Ive got a double murderer , loads of illigitimates including my mum and her sisters,,, trouble so what .. that will teach them to try and hide stuf!!

Well Lisa, thats familys for you. I can assure you a lot of people have the same problem. You also have to remember that sometimes, especially with older people, the past can be very painful, they didnt have the easy life a lot of us have today.

The people on here are always willing to give up there time and resources to help but you do have to be patient.

Hi Lisa
my family are the same but the lads and lasses on here will do there best for you.

all i know from the stuff iv got is that she is APPLEY H JENKS not known maiden name, she had 6 children 1 my great great grandmother MARTHA b1876, ADAM b 1871,MATTHEW b1865, SARAH b 1873, NAOMIE b1877 and CLARA but no date of brith or age for her

I've just posted her maiden name

Aplianna Lewis

along with her marriage details - you will have to order her marriage certificate (I've given details) in order to get her fathers name.

my nan who died today couldnt even tell me who her mother was i cant blame her tho coz she was a bit forgetful anyway so in the end i did search and found out her mums maiden name but cant find 1st name thats gonna b hard but ill do it with the help coz they have helped me a lot on here there absolute gems

yeah u just want to know who ur ancesters were at the end of the day ur inquizative

Lisa, you have been really lucky with this one as she has such an unusual name! Its not always this easy!!
