Hi, We have a possible Aunt who was a Mary Josephine Trotman, she was born in Stroud in 1874 and had a sister Katherine Ann born in Stroud in 1876. Their mother was Mary Jones born in Onibury nr Ludlow and christened in 1838-9. This lady was always referred to as Aunt by my Father's generation but I have not yet found a family connection.At best it will be distant.
