Hello Fellow Listers, I am new to this list and am researching the name of PATERSON. I have found part of 'my' family in ROCHFORD circa 1901 onwards. ROBERT PATERSON aged 73 died 1909 is probably 'mine' as is ELIZABETH PATERSON aged 70 could be his wife died 1916 HUGH SUTHERLAND VALENTINE PATERSON (Val) married in Rochford in 1908 to ETHEL BICKMORE is definitely of my family (his father was Robert born 1835) and PHYLLIS BARCLAY PATERSON born 1898 (granddaughter of Robert b 1835) she is the daughter of Robert James Paterson b 1870 and it appears she married a JACK DOBSON in 1929 in Rochford. Also it appears that a Robert James PATERSON married a RUTH FOSTER in 1916. Not sure whether this is the same Robert (father of Phyllis) or not. If anyone has anymore info on these families (there are other Paterson births deaths and marriages in Rochford in the same time frame which could also belong) I would love to hear from them. Kind regards Ave Ferguson nee PATERSON Napier, NZ
