Barry Report 23 Jul 2012 11:53

My great great grandmother was Elizabeth Nelmes BC 1848.

The daughter of George BC 1829 and Ann BC 1827 (nee Perkins)

Elizabeth was the second of 2 illigitimate children, the first also Elizabeth died a couple of years previous, shortly after birth,

George and Ann married later on and had more children I believe.

I would like if possible help with finding these siblings!.

Feel free to ask anything and il tell you if I know!.
