I'm trying to trace any Selmes family members from the Somerset & East Sussex areas. I have loads of info on them that I'm willing to share.

Hi

I too am interested in the Selmes name. Louisa Messetter md Wm Selmes about 1889 in Sussex. They had 7 children one of which was Frances in 1894. Frances went on to have a child in 1923 Phyllis and it is Frances who I am interested in.
I would love to find any relatives that might be in Sussex, Kent or evern New Zealand.
I know what happened to Phyllis, but would love to know what heppened to Frances.
I note on 1901 census Louisa is in the workhouse without Wm b.1868 Mountfield, and am wondering what happened to him and did Louisa remarry.
Would love to hear from you, I have much into too that we culd share.
regards
Gwen
