Trying to find gascoigne

Hi Clare,

I believe that an Agnes (known as 'Aggie' )Gascoigne was living in South Normanton (Notts) at the turn of the century. She married a man called Hancock (I think!) and I believe that they may have had one daughter together.

This is sketchy info gathered from my father's distant memories that I have not checked out as yet.

He remembers Aggie having 3 brothers ..Steve, Jack and Sam...(Steven? and Samuel?). Sam did not marry he lived with his parents in South Normanton. He was a dustman, a great bloke and he enjoyed racing greyhounds. Steve married Lyd (Lydia?) and it is unknown whether they had children.

Jack is my paternal grandfather and I know quite a lot about him! Hope this helps (if indeed it is the same Agnes Gascoigne, then she is my great aunt!)

Regards

Sue (nee Gascoigne)

Agnes Gascoigne, born approx 1888 in Retford, Nottinghamshire. Hi, I am looking for any further relations to the above lady. She married Herbert Robinson and had 4 children, Herbert, Kenneth, Edna and Douglas. Any help would be fantastic. Thanks Clare
