Accurately describes the life of my ancestors on both sides, but especially on my Mom's side. Brutal.

My mum was from Manchester. I fully expected to find similar stories in my ancestry but was shocked to find affluence instead. Didn’t expect that, as my mum was raised in Wythenshawe in the 1940s in poverty.

Me Nan was born in east ham and I traced her ancestry to several generations living in London. Me 3x great grandmother divorced her husband in 1892 and ended up with the 10 children. Her husband ran several pubs around hoxton and was a drunk who hit his wife he also had an affair and had three illigitamte children by a nouther woman.

I trace one of my Dad's line all the way back to Henry VIII's reign in London. He got a certificate of Freedom of the City and the coolest part was that every generation between me and my ancestor has had someone living in London. I was born less then 5 miles from his address in the 16th century. Family went up and down in fortune, lots of great-aunts and uncles left for different colonies, but my line stayed put and we're still here.

These had hard lives but they succeed to raise their children to keep the family names going.
