Hi, Hopefully in the intervening months since you posted your message, my information has not become old news, but I tend to concentrate on the family history stuff once the weather changes!! My grandmother was a Mushens and I am now married to a Ranson, so you can see my interest immediately!! Elsie was born in 1912, the daughter of Joseph Mushens and Mary Chapman. As well as Elsie they had George and John, probably many more but I have only been able to find the births of George and John so far. Joseph Mushens was born in 1877, the son of John Mushens and Margaret J Pattison, who married in Sunderland in 1872. John's parents were Joseph Mushens and Jane Elsdon, Joseph's parents were Robert Mushens and Mary Kay. Another of Robert and Mary's sons was John, and it is this John that is my great, great grandfather, so making Elsie Mushens my 3rd cousin, once removed. Ranson was born in 1911 and his parents were George M Green and Mary Elizabeth Ravey. I have no further information on this line at the moment but I do have plenty on the Mushens line. Hope this is helpful.
Regards, Hayley Ranson.
