hey guys, you seem to have all the resources!!!
looking for a peter ford and elizabeth ambler. they're my 3rd great grandparents.
both born in 1835, him in gloucester, her in leeds, according to the census.
i found them in 1871 onwards living in chapel allerton, leeds. now it gets tricky!!
half the kids, the older ones, were born in kent, around the 1860's. but the family's not on the census. the others were born in leeds, in the early and late 1870's.
elizabeth died in the 1890's and peter died in 1905.
i havn't got the birth for my 2nd great grandmother, edith maud ford, so im not sure that ambler is elizabeths surname. i just found a peter maried to an elizabeth on freebmd just before the eldest child was born.
but, back on topic. the family is missing before 1871... on all censuses. i can't find the parents married or single. but, he was born in gloucester, they married in leeds, moved to kent and then back to leeds all in 10 years. that's the lot of moving for that period, especially since he was a gardener.
i've tried looking them up in familysearch and havn't been successful. any ideas?
