    Default Surname interest - Sumner

    Hi there Hilary-P

    Greetings from Sydney Australia, capital of New Zealand.

    We share an interest in the surname SUMNER. You didn't give much information about the person or family that you are seeking. My grandmother was born Margaret SUMNER in Preston Lancashire, her parents were Richard and Margaret Sumner. She married my grandfather, a 20 year old batchelor George Frankcom in Birmingham after her parents had relocated to that fair city, I am not biased, even though I was born there !

    Let me know if you are interested,

    Regards,

    Peter F.

    Hi Nicolina have since discovered my Grandfathers name was Cuthbert William PeacockI think Charles was a Nickname his Siblings were Sumner,Adeline,Wynfreda Harold and Emma
    Charles had a wife in England and a Daughter Do not know his Wifes name but he had a Daughter Named Muriel. His wife reportedly Died on 24 June 1907 but I have so fare been unable to trace anything about her or her Daughter Muriel.
    Thank you for your interest as there is an Annie Peacock somewhere in the Family and it may well be the one you have found so I will follow through with this
    Find Regards Hilary

    Hi Hilary, I've just checked the 1911 Census and there is only one Cuthbert Peacock but none of the family names match yours and this Cuthbert was born in 1894. Of course he could have been enumerated as William which meas he wouldn't be so easy to find.
