I have found my Great Grandmother her name is Grace Lucy Smith born October 1897 and her mothers name is Lucy Smith (nee Holder). Her fathers name is Edgar Smith. I've been told there is a sister either by the nameof Jessie or Jessica?? I can't seem to find her or any other siblings can anyone shed some light on this for me?? Grace Lucy was born in the district of Greenwich. :) |

his job in 1901 is works in the Iron works just had a thought perhaps he didn't like the name Edger and went by Percy as it says Percy E. I had a cert once it said mother Elizabeth nee Briant when on all census she was called Agnes Elizabeth and her maiden name was O'Brien. Jeanette |

Thank you for finding their date of Marriage this also confirms I have the right birth cert, and it does explain the funny squiggle above the name Edgar on the said cert. He must have hated the name Percy!! |
