Hi Eric, Thanks for all your hard work and all the information. Let me give you some of my family history so you can see where I'm coming from.
My mother in law Margaret Stowell is the daughter of Florence Nightingale Scarffe. Florence's father was Joseph Scarffe. Florence was the last of his children and was born in 1890 but the birth wasn't registered. Joseph was born in Bradden in 1838, baptisim 18/11/1838. He started out life as a labourer, then a groom and finally a coachman. He was well known for taking Dr. Woods out on his rounds. Joseph married three times and Florence's mother was his last wife Elizabeth Smith. Josephs father was James Scarffe and his mother Margaret Lewin.
Unfortunately after this is where things get confusing and I've had trouble finding out about James. Thank you for your history of the Scarffes and I will hopefully be able to move on from here.
Regards Lynda
