I haven't read all the thread so I wont say I have, but they were Romany gypsies and my cousins and I have Mears and Deacons in our trees...flower shops in the south of England but travelled widely. Intermarried with Bacons and Roberts too.

If you want to message me I have these people in my tree. Only just rejoined the site so it seems like fate I've just seen this post. Gypsy births often weren't registered by the way, John.

Wow Romany, how 'lucky' was that ,you rejoining at just the right time when this was on page one of General :-)

I know Rose lol!! I had to look twice! If John wants to message me I can give him lots of info and put him in touch with someone else related.
