I on finding the Examination, which I assume you found either at NationalArchives or the record Office, I think you are now in for a session of trawling the parish records at the local Record office....

There are several trees on the well known search site A******* none are any further back than the above and only show the one child Samuel

elsabels don't really know what the examination bit is all about just found that one line on the internet - was she taken to petty sessions for having illegitimate children?

Hello

Well you landed on your feet finding this, as you realise ittells you a lot about your family, and some researchers would have spent years trawling the records for 'titbits' such as this,

It is likely that ( and at this stage speculatively) that Mary wanted Parish Relief and this was the 'Churchwardens' recordings

based on this I will have a look around to see where else we can get info for your family

Tell me have your family any connections with the Hampshire Gypsies? The reason I ask is that there were some obscure/different forenames i found whilst looking for Ayres /Stanley



elsabels

yes this side of my family were hampshire gypsies they were gypsies from my great great gran backwards, I got the dates wrong for barbara- mistyped. the link back from the marriage of george ayres and Rosanna pike is where I have not got documented evidence. I know georges fathers name was james. I have been told but not proven that his mum was Barbara and her parent was the intriguing mary stanley - I know nothing of the stanley part of the tree and need to solidify the link george - james+barbara

Thanks for that, I have found quite a bit on the interent related to your family on the internet,
however fellow member noggin28 ( he has already posted above) he has already helped one member with her Romany family so I have asked him to assist you, hope this is OK....

Yes Noggin It was me typing late at night!. Thanks elsabels Noggin has been invaluable in piecing other parts of my tree together. I have paper trailed to George and Rosanna - from there backwards I am guessing - I know Georges Dad was James Ayers (that is how it is spelt on marriage certificate of George) I have been 'told' his mother was Barbara and 'told' me her parents were Samuel Ayres and Mary Stanley. Now trying to track these families back understand Ayres is also Airs, Eyers, Ayers.
Thanks for any help you can give noggin and thanks elsabels
