hi ,rawnybossie .reguarding major boswell my direct tree is my great grandma was callandine clayton nee booth /smith daughter of eliza boswell who was daughter of lucy boswell who i know very little about .thanks for your message bob

[rawnybossie]

i know major was first married to lucy , but i'll go through what information i have , as majors son thomas had a daughter called eliza so im wondering if he also had a sister named eliza also, i will check what i have , as elijah is a name in my family , my grandad had a brother elijah ,

[rawnybossie]

As far as i can find out , there are 2 eliza's one was born in or around 1834 and the other about 8 years later , so im not sure if either of them are your eliza ,might be a differant branch , but one was born in derbyshire the other staffordshire so it might be another branch of my family, i find anything els i'll let you know

Just to add a spanner to the works.

My g g g grandfather married Lucy Boswell. His name is Riley Boss, he had the following children to her.

Naomi born 1832
Silvester born 1835
Isaac Haggi Boss born 1836
Elizabeth born 1837
Moellus born 1839
Nelson born 1840
Samson born 1843

It maybe that he did have another child to lucy boswell. Hope this helps a little.

Riley did however have two further wives to my knowledge and had a total of 21 children.

i think we have different lucy's, i think and acording to other people my lucy was either wife? or daughter of elijha boswell, i am still trying to get my head round it all, perhaps one day i will get a little closer, thanks for your messages, regards bob.

Hi there, just thought I had to come into this conversation as my mum was born a boswell /turner manchester then become a evacuee mother was turner. An I know how hard it is to find them because they were romanies they would of traveled around. It has taken me some time just for info from when my mum was born. I didn't even know she was a turner let alone a boswell till last yr. Life is strange and mum never really spoke of her young age except she did say we have roman gypsy in ower blood on her side whitch is all I had to go on an my birth certificate. Lol I could have a lot more family out there ya never know, found there was 8 of us not the four we new about when I checked names on my certificate. Ofcorss if I had seen the other names I would of of brought it up to mum as she was poorly an from what I found had a ssad life as a child too as lots did in ww2. Now if you find there is a doreen bowell/turner/shaw in your family do get back please (yer a mouth full she was adopted to the shaws in stoke-on-trent 1939-1940. Turner was her mum, boswell her dad an she had 2 sister's from what I can find so far ). I do hope you have success in your finds good luck gal. Regards pam

Hi Bobby goat

My g g grandfather Riley Boss / Boswell married Lucy Boswell and had numerous children. He also married two further women and had a total of 21 children to three women. I am led to believe that this lucy boswell emigrated to USA. I do have a bit of information on Lucy which I can share with you if you wish.
