Dear Peggy, The Mary I was looking for was born in Swanley, Nottinghamshire in 1867. Her parents - John Allwood b.1821, Wilmington,&Eliza Groomsbridge,b1839, Horton Kirby. John father-Samuel b 12/8/1798,Epperstone & Mary Thraves 1795 Bingham. Father William b 2/12/1764 & Elizabeth Featherstone, married 1785.Father James 8/6/1737 Lowdham,&Mary Brittle, married 1/2/1764. Father John & Elizabeth Barrowcliffe, Oxton.I have no birthdates for these last two.There were so many Allwoods' in this area.We have visited there and found lots of graves with Allwood names. They seemed to have large families as well, so it makes it hard to chase up.I am related through Samuel and have not chased any further back as yet.It is sure interesting trying to find out about our ancestors.
Regards and hope this was some help. Keep in touch if I can be of any help. Loraine Sheppard @ [email protected]
