Would love to hear from you if you are descend from the same family as tracing the WEEKS is a bit of a nightmare, although there are at least 2 other descended from this family on the trail.
I have traced the Weeks family back to 1841 census.
We also have some Birth, Marriage and Death certificates between us....but there are many gaps as the same Christian names appear all over the place, in Bristol, Keynsham, & Bath, where we know some of them lived.
Railway workers feature a lot in this Weeks family too.
