Just wondering if a Roy Calvert born in Sheffield in 1927 is around or any of his descendants?

Parents Leonard Calvert and Mary Longstaff.

Cheers

Sorry my mistake Roy's grandparents would be Leonard Flint Calvert & Mary Longstaff, his Father William

Hi, any chance you could say what your relationship is to Roy Calvert.

Thanks Cal

Roy's father was a William Calvert? If so he had a brother called Maurice george and he's my Great grandad. I've sent you a PM. If there's a connection be good to get in contact

Cheers

Hi,
My fathers name was Roy & I believe his father was William, Not sure on the brother. What little I do know is that his parents did originate from the Ripon area so if you follow the Mary Longstaff lead there is a ripon connection.

The last contact I had with Roy; he lived in Jordanthorpe.
Are we close.

The 2004 electoral roll shows two people with the name Roy Calvert in Sheffield - one at Jordanthorpe and one in S3. PM me if you'd like either address..:)

Cant pm you as do not have enough entries on forum yet.

Hi calv - will do! You should be able to open a PM, so I'll send the addresses via PM also.

The Calvert's I'm descended from came from York, WIlliam was a tailor and had a shop his wife was Catherine White, talking mid 1800s, they had a son called Leonard Flint Calvert, he moved to Sheffield and married a Mary Longstaff ( 1898 ) who was from Mexborough originally. They had 2 sons a William (your grandad?) & Maurice George (my great grandad).

So if your Roy is related to ones I've mentioned, then Roy and my Nan would be cousins.

You'll have to contact me if any of this ties in.

Cheers

The William Calvert I'm connected to (Roy's dad) lived at 23 Brall Street, Attercliffe in the early 1940s, he was a steel worker. Also if you are connected do you have much info Mary Longstaff's background?

Cheers

Im a Calvert but dont know anything at all about my family. I did start a thread on here a while back and got some great information. The only thing i do know is my dad was called Lawrence and was a bus driver.

Nice one, that'd be good as it seems there is some kind of connection if you know about a Mary Longstaff.
