My gggg grandfather was William Sherriff(e) who married a Mary Ann. Their children include Joseph, William, Perrin, Thomas, Matilda, Uriah and Abraham - all born between abt 1830-50. The family trade seems to have been cutlers and chair menders or makers. They were almost certainly a travelling gypsy family.

Does anyone recoginise any of these facts and could perhaps offer more info?

Joseph Sherriff married Eliza Hodgkinson.

Many thanks - Garen.
