Hi I am a member of the England Project – Connectors Team

I have found a way to connect Henry William Mobsby -48 to the main tree and give him some relatives into the bargain. I have gained my proofs with sources from Family Search – his profile is L8KH-877.

It already states that the he is the son of William Mobsby (1833) and Sarah Timewell (1831)

William Mobsby’s parents are James Mobsby (1802) and Hannah Stenning (1808)

Hannah’s parents are Samuel Stenning (1772) and Hannah Waller (1773-1852)

Samuel Stenning is the son of Edward Stenning-85 and his wife Susan Mitchell-20900

Are you happy for me to add the relevant profiles with sources and make the connection.

Regards

Jules Harris
