:DWow!! Shere, thank you so much! :biggrin::biggrin::biggrin: This is my ancestors - you realy did me a GREAT favour - thank you. If ever you come accross any further information regarding this family, PLEASE???? I live in South Africa and have no clue as how otherwise to trace their decendants - so if anybody out there can help me, :brokenheart:I would be extremely grateful!

Wonder who each of the individuals married, their children and where the decendants are??? Thank you once again! Emmie:)

Thanks all for precious information - as I live in South Africa, I hugely depend on the friendly people in the UK for my desperate information!!

Now that I have found the origins of the Bottomley family that links to my excistence, I DESPERATELY need the following in order to continue the knowledge of my existence:

ETHEL BOTTOMLEY (daughter of Edwin and Jane Bottomley) was married to: CLEMENT HARRIS - BORN ABOUT 1892

CLEMENT'S SIBLINGS WERE: ANNIE, ELLEN, JOHN, MAUD and MILTON (THEIR PARENTS WERE: FRED & EMILY HARRIS)

Ethel and Clement Harris had a daughter called: LILLY HARRIS (DID THEY HAVE MORE CHILDREN - WHAT ARE THEIR NAMES AND WHEN WERE THEY BORN?

ANY tiny bit of info will help! - thank you most kindly....
