I have been looking for my ggggran in the 1841
her name was Martha Tivey nee Hancock her husband was Francis Tivey, I wasnt expecting to find him necessarily as he was a Royal Marine............I knew Martha was in Portsmouth in 1840 as gggran Ellen Jane was born there then and they were still there in 1842 when her brother was born.
I have found in Portsea Portsmouth a Martha Levia, son William age 5 (he was born Wales) and daug Ellen age 1 all ages place and first names fit
Am I taking too big a leap of faith to think this is my family?
