SMALE - Family Tree

My family tree

Since this was uploaded, we've found some more on the Gasper side.  The person who we've called Florence Violet Gasper was born Florence Gasper Greenslade.  I sent off for her birth certificate and her mother was given Annie.

When Florence died in 1962 she stated that her parents were Thomas Greenslade and Mary Gasper - but was this for respectability and difficult to prove wrong from over 10,000 miles away in England?  (For more information about the Greenslade side, see link on right hand side here)
