I am researching my grandfather's family, the Partridges who lived in the Coleford area. I believe his father was Timothy born 1856, married to Sarah Ann Surbey.
According to records Timothy died around 1904.
I discovered baptism records for my grandad's siblings but cannot find his.
My grand father was Sydney (Sidney) James Partridge born around 1897. At some point he and his mother and family moved to Bargoed after his father died. (possibly in Gloucester Lunatic Asylum)
I believe that Timothy's sister Lucy married a John Musto Roseblade and emigrated to Queensland - they are buried in Yungaburra Cemetery.
I would love to hear from anyone who has links with our family.
