Find Ancestors

Hi, can anyone put me in the right direction to finding out about mt great grandparents. All I know from my mother is that they were both Deaf and Dumb coming from Camden - St Pancras area, I do have their names but alas cant find out anymore. I am summing they may have met in a institute or something back in 1840/50 any idea as to where I could search further.
Best regards

Would you like to put their names on here so we could take a look?

Hi Joyce and welcome to the boards.

If you take a look at the Help Clinic, above left, it gives you an idea of how to go about giving information etc.

It may also be worthy putting the names you are researching into the Search Trees box above (in the dark green bar) to see if anyone else has them in their tree. If you find a connection, you can contact the tree owner.

Regards. Cx

I've sent Joyce a message asking her to come back with some names

Oh wow I didn't think you would be hat good !!!!!!
Their names were
WALTER FINCH - Born 1852? - have found death record on Pancras, London, Volume Num 1B, Volume Page 25

as for my Grandmother I know her name was ANNIE and I think the surname was THORN

They had two children - LUCY and ROSELLA (Lucy was the name we knew her by but not sure if correct)

If only we had asked the questions when they were alive !!!

Thank you so much for your time and instructions regarding this site.
Best regards
JOYCE
