Hi Patricia
Thank you for offering to help trace family members - it means such a lot to some of us!
My grandmother - Maud Mossenton - was born in Westminster in 1880. Her mother is listed as Ellen Bell, maiden name Robinson, and her father is listed as Charles Mossenton, labourer. (I guess they were not married at the time because of the surnames.) Ellen and Maud, and possibly other children, came to Australia in either 1884 or 1888 by ship. Maud's brothers' names were Charles and Victor and possibly a Harry. Don't know if they were older or younger than she. I am interested in finding out anything at all about Ellen Bell and Charles Mossenton.
Many thanks
