Hi Kay this is my daughter inlaws side of the family now the only place a Florance shows up is on the birth cert for Maude but the story goes Samuel and Rebecca returned to Ireland so their daughter Florance could give birth as their daughter wasn't married they raised the child Maude as their own now the only child I can find born to Samuel & Rebecca is Lucy F born 1883 Sydney then there is no trace of these 3 until Maudes birth but can't work out why Maude would have her grandmother as mum and her real mum as dad on the cert on the marriage for Samuel and Rebecca it has Samuel was a widow and Rebecca was a spinster so don't think that's where the 2 different last names have come from so I'm confused thanks Lee |
