Thread: Ford Family of Islington London 1900-1925 ish

I am looking for my fathers family. Edward john ford (my father) was born in Mary Le Bone in 1922 and his father Samuel Ford was married to Lilian Ford. I know my 2 great grandmothers one was english and one was german but I don't have any first names or where they were from. Any help appreciated.



Thank you. Trudy

There is a birth for a Edward John Ford MMN MAthews in MAr Q 1922 Islington. BUT there are also biths for Edward Ford in Jun Q 1922 St Olave( Kelland) and Sept Q Lambeth 1922 ( Corcoran) although this is for an Edward G Ford - and in Brentford Sept Q 1922 for an Edward JJ Ford (Pink)



And then there is a marriage for Samuel Ford to a Possible Lillian Mathews in MAr Q 1908 Paddington.



To know 100% what Johns Mothers full name was you would need his Birth cert though.

Thank you for your information, it has been of assistance. The name mathews does fit for my grandmother. So another piece of the jigsaw sorted.



I think her mother was Irish and my other great grandmother was German (Samuel Ford's) mother. So I am on that track now.



Once again thank you for your assistance, do we have any common relations?



Best wishes

There are 4 other births in Islington with the MMN of Mathews



Harry C Ford 1915

Alice E Ford 1920

Harold W Ford 1924

Henry V Ford 1926



They may or may not be siblings

Well Esta what can I say.



Again thank you very much, these people are my uncles and aunt and I never knew their birth details. and I never knew about Harry. He was dead before I came along and not spoken of but I thought there was another uncle somewhere in the picture.



So thank you so much for this information.



Best wishes
