Find Ancestors

Completing a tree for my nephews 21st and lacking details on my mothers side. My mother was an only child from her fathers second marriage.As a baby cared for by her mothers sister and had very limited contact with fathers family.
Very recently found multiple graves in Llandaff Cathedral which gave clues to a much larger family.Including a half brother Tony Kelvin Reed and aunts / uncles.

Edit...you would be best to delete your other thread now,and we will stick with this one.

I think it may be Wrington Paula.

Angela pmd me from her other thread on surnames ,which "someone" apparently advised her to put it on "as well"???
And she left a message on the thread so I know she can get back to her threads,all we need now is some feedback and then we can help properly.
She pmd me again just after 11am this morn,but maybe she is at work and can only sneak on sometimes!

By your last pm you now want to start with this.

Grandfather Albert Reed 1922 plus what siblings he had?
Where was he born?

When you say siblings do you mean HIS brothers and sisters ?
Or the children from his first marriage?your mothers half siblings.

1871 Yarnscombe Devon
George Reed 45 Game keeper b Wrington Somerset
Mary Ann 40 wife b East Harptree
Jessie 14 b Winkleigh
Albert 12 b Chulmleigh
Ellen 10 b St Giles
Eliza 4 b Torrington
Emily 1 b Yarnscombe

1861 St Giles in the Wood
George Reed 34 Sergeant Police DBC b Wrington Somerset
Mary A 30 wife b East Harptree
Mary A 10 b Bristol St James
George 8 b Bristol St Michael
Fred 6 b Bristol St Michael
Jessie 4 b Winkleigh Devon
Albert 2 b Chulmleigh Devon

Dear all,

thanks you very much for all your help. As Vivianne said I was initially given "dubious" advice and put the same thread in two areas.
Sorry for any confusion this has caused.

As I mentioned earlier we always thought of my mother as an only child, with no family to speak of on her fathers side. It has been a surprise to find Albert was in fact one of several children. Even more of a shock to find that Reed family members had been buried at Llandaff Cathedral in recent years when I found the graves just 2 weeks ago.

I take on board the advice to search in smaller managable chunks. I think my priority would be to find marriages or deaths for Alberts brothers and sisters.

As always all advice and guidance is greatfully received, and is helping to piece together a family / social history of great relevenace.

Kind regards
Angela

Albert henry Reed b 1906 Sep Q Cardiff 11a 326
Albert H Reed married (1) Ivy M Brooks 1927 Jun Q Cardiff 11a 958
(2) Olwen M E Thomas 1945 Dec Q Cardiff 11a 935

So where does "grandfather Albert 1922 fit into the picture? the Albert who had 2 wives was born 1906 or have I lost the plot?

I dont think you have lost the plot Gillian, because I couldnt work that one out either.
So if the grandfather was born in 1906 who IS the 1922 one then ,just a typo mistake on the year??

Siblings of Albert 1906

Emily R Reed married Ernest J Sedgebeer 1920 Dec Q Cardiff
Harold L Reed m Florence E White 1927 Mar Q Cardiff
Sidney B Reed m Ethel Williams 1924 Jun Q cardiff
There are too many George Reed marriages in cardiff post 1920 to be sure of the right one

1911 for Albert henry reed 1906

HOUSEHOLD REED ALBERT HENRY M 1906 5 Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED LEWIS M 1875 36 Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED ANNIE F 1877 34 Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED FREDERICK CHARLES M 1905 6 Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED GEORGE REGINALD M 1901 10 Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED HAROLD LEWIS M 1897 14 Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED MAY F 1911 1 DAY Cardiff Glamorganshire
HOUSEHOLD REED SIDNEY HERBERT M 1899 12 Cardiff Glamorganshire

I dont think I have 2 households mixed up there,but 1901 will tell if I have.

I will have to check back later ,called away.

1901 Llandaff Glamorgan
Lewis Reed 29 Platelayer Rly b Bristol
Annie 26 wife b Devon
Emily 5 b Exeter
Harold 4 b Exeter
Sydney 2 B Cardiff
George 2mths b cardiff all English speaking

Guess we will have to wait on Angela getting back to this thread to resolve the 1922 Albert

Hi Gillian.
Do you know how to cut and paste ?and if not would you like me to try and explain how for you?
Its pretty easy,it must be if I can do it,and would make it a lot easier for you to help people as it so quick.

Vivienne
Many thanks for your kind offer -no, I dont know how to cut and paste, but it does seem to me that that those who do, produce these long streams of info in a form which I find difficult to sort out, never mind a "newbie", and dont incude occupations and birthplaces for ALL the residents.
Its just a personal preference for this purpose to transcribe it direct from the image
But for other purposes it might be useful so if you can spare the time to PM me with the steps I'd be grateful
