Why has GlitterBaby's post asking who reported her post now been reported?

I have a feeling of deja vu coming on here

Laurence,
Genes will not discuss with me why someone else has been reported.
They will quote the grounds of confidentiality.

Laurence,
Are you reporting Reggie's posts?
If you are, could you explain the reasons behind the reporting, not hide behind anonymity.
If it is not you, could the person who is reporting them give their reasons?
Thank-you.

There is some confusion about family head Edward Goff b 1846. That is the correct dob. He used it when he married a margaret evans. At the time he kept a shop in kinnerley. This marriage has only just become known. He later married a Sarah Brayne and gave his dob as 1855 . He married Margaret in 1864 and Sarah apparently in 1905 at the age 59years and had 6 children with her! One of them being my mother in law. He had a successful shop which still exists in Kinnerley but went on to become a farmer as most of them were. But suddenly the details of virtually all the family have disappeared.. I have traced 2 children who were staying at Grandfather Braynes house at the time of the census. This suggest the rest of the family did not fill in a census form for some reason. There is a suggestion they fell on hard times due to gambling debts but the only evidence I have found is a Goff in the workhouse which may be family.

:-P

Edward Goff appears to be born 1855 not 1846, unless 1911 census is wrong.

Have you got any deaths or marriages for any of your Mother-in-law's immediate family?

So has glitterbaby posted the birth for your mother-in-law?

Sorry for spelling errors in my reply to Patchem above. Some of them are quite funny. I must learn to check my replies!!

Thank you for your replies. They have been helpful. In particular I am trying to find out information from the period 1911 to 1946 which family members have asked me to research as they cannot find out any details of what happened to the family. They were landowners at the time but for some unknown reason the lands etc were lost. I did find information about Goffs being in the workhouse at this time but need to confirm they are the same family. Any further advice would be good but thanks for the info so far.

Part of a pm received:

I have been asked by some family members to see if I can get info as they have failed.

I have details of Edward Goff and his family but the line diaappears after about 1911 census

.The main Goffs from kinnerley/Knockin/condover just do not appear.

The Father is Edeard Godd 1846 and his children are on record as Wilfred/Sam Eleanor/Edward and I know there is a daughter as she is my mother in law Mary Cartherine.

I am not having any sucess in tracing the recent events, There is a take that the family lostty its money and land due to gambling debts and I have found a Goof that was in the workhouse about this time but cannot confirm it is the same family. Any help would be good.

:-P

:-P

:-P

Could you be a little bit more specific as to what information you have, and who and when you are looking for more information?
Thank-you

Added:
There are no Goffs from Kinnerley in anyone's trees on here, so some dates are needed.

I am trying to trace this family. They mainly lived in Kinnerley but around that vicinity in Shropshire. Any help would be good .thanks
