Pete Morgan ran the chip shop in Steam Mills with his wife nd family. They had 3 children Tina, Mandy (yes she was very ill - a tumour on her spine) and Stephen.

Pete died within the last 5 years and I think Vi (his widow) now runs a chip shop in Cinderford.

Hi Rose,

I am connected with the Morgans who I think she came from Steam Mills and would be interested in what you find.

Kind regards, Gemma

We have details of the Morgan children born to Arthur Morgan and Hannah Holder and also details of the children born to Leslie Morgan and Maisie James.
These may be of use to you in adding to the family tree that you are creating for your sister-in-law.

My mother is the yougest child of Arthur Morgan and Hannah and hence sister to Leslie Morgan.

Regards:
Davidles

Hello,

I have just been reading your correspondence with "Slowhands" and was amazed to see lots of my husband's ancestors and relatives mentioned in your exchanges of e-mails.

I am sure that David would like to respond to you personally but just had to send you a notice of his intention to do so.

David's Grandfather is Arthur Morgan and his Grandmother is Hannah Morgan.
The children that you mention are all v familiar to us. Stanley Morgan emigrated to South Africa and we are in touch with his Grandaughter, Elizabeth Jane who lives there still.

I know that David will contact you asap.

Bye for now - best wishes from Jeanette.

It has helped quite a lot , I know that there are other siblings , but they were all born in the 1920/30's and could still be alive.(tricky one) I did meet them in 1971 when Lucy Kitson died, but of course i have forgotten most of the names. it all happened just after i was married and mother in law met her half brothers and sisters for the first time
at least i can now update the family tree, with a few more names that were distantly part of her life
it is to be a surprise for my sister in law for her 60th birthday
so thanks again for all of your help

Thanks for the update - always good to get feedback on how this detective work goes - does it solve the case or add to the confusion !!

This is intriguing, did Lucy have theswe two children by Alfred Kitson or were they Mr Morgan,s
i am going to send for the certs as the name reginald is now ringing bells
it is sych a long time since 1971 to remember any names.

Thanks again

HI thanks for all of the info , i did have some of this , but it has helped
i am still really trying to find about the MORGAN side since 1917
as Lucy May James lived with Mr Morgan until she died, this will give me Linda Gertrude Kitson's half brothers and sisters

Thanks again
