Over the last year, we have worked with National World to secure an agreement allowing us to digitise and publish more of their content. National World currently have over 200 local and regional titles across the United Kingdom and we are diligently working through them as quickly as possible. While the Portsmouth Evening News is on the plan, please note that turnaround times may vary depending on the accessibility of the material for digitisation.

Edward Saunders was born in Iver Heath, Buckinghamshire circa 1853. His wife Phoebe was born in Belgravia in 1863, she died in 1908. They lived in Meek Street, Chelsea and had several children; Caroline b.1884. Phoebe b.1888 - d.1905, Ivy (aka Louie) b.1891, Lucy b.1891 - d.1894, Maude b.1934, Fredie b.1940 and May b.1951. My husbands paternal grandmother was Caroline but the family history gets very sketchy beacause we can find no record of her ever marrying. She registered her son, Frederick's birth without a father but two years later she registered her daughter, Carrie Grace, and gave the father as Ernest Saunders and against her own name is the entry 'formally Paine'. To further complicate matters she brought both children up thinking their name was Chapman and put them in to a childrens home in Banstead in 1969 under that name. The only other clue we have to the possible identity of the father is that on both the birth certificate and on my father-in-law's marriage certificate, the profession of Ernest Charles) Saunders is shown as a miller (brewery). We would love to find anyone who might have connections with this family.
