Hello my name is Jeff Bell and I live in Brisbane, Australia.My query is that I am trying to trace down my Ellen Griffiths and her parents.My search takes me back as far as Ellen born in Wales c1833 (Husband unknown) who had a son John Griffiths born 24 October 1857 in a Workhouse at Brownlow Hill, Liverpool, Lancaster, England. This is where it gets tricky, records show that a John Griffiths died on the 6 November 1857 but also show that both Mother and son were dispatched from hospital shortly after.We believe John Griffiths was orphaned around 28 December 1865 and sent to a Mr J Grawn a shoemaker at Paddington. John Griffiths married an Ellen Dean and according to 1881 Census John and Ellen Griffiths and their daughter Alice (2 Years) resided at 99 Butler Street West Derby, Lancaster.There is also another Ellen Griffiths (born 1899), daughter of John Griffiths and Ellen Dean who married Edward Jenkinson Dempster. As you are no doubt aware the searching for relatives is hard enough in your own country let alone in another country. If you can help me in anyway I would be very grateful.I can be contacted at the e-mail address jbell@betta.com.au otherwise my home e-mail is jaams@gil.com.au=20
