Elizabeth Hemmings (my Grandma ) Father was a William Hemmings and a farm worker her Mother Ellen Hemmings formerly Payne died when Grandma was around nine but i cannot find any details of the death , the address on Grandma,s birth certificate is 26, Court 24, Greyfriars, Coventry, but again i have come to a brick wall on that, it is possible that you have found Grandma as a boarder as when she became pregnant with william her Father threw her out of the house, was that some kind of hostel she was boarding in ?? or someone elses house ? yes that is poss william's birth you have found , it's amazing well done. i think Grandma also had an older Sister and a younger Brother named William ( maybe Ellen died in child birth !!
