Hope really soon I will be able to find out as much info as everyone else does. My question is:
My great grandfather Thomas Read born 1847 in Taunton Somerset was a child of Thomas Read born 1812 in Liverpool. As he was in the Army his children were born in various places. On the 1851 census he is down as being spelt REID not READ. His wife's name is Ellen and it states she is born in Barbados British National. She died ?? and he married again to a Dinah Brown, and they had more children. I have the birth certificates of his children with Ellen and they state mother as Ellen Elvin.
This is where I have come to a full stop, I cannot find out anything about her or mention of any of her family. I have wedding certificate of Thomas & Dinah and it states he was a widower, so she must have died!! I presume!
Any halp on this would be gratefully appreciated.
