Emma Willis Uncovers Illegitimate Ancestors | Who Do You Think You Are

Presenter Emma Willis grew up in Birmingham and loves the city and her fellow Brummies. She wants to find out how deep her roots are there. Further afield, an interfaith marriage in Ireland leads Emma down two very different paths. Violent events force her to confront disturbing truths about one ancestor, while the hard graft and determination of another lead Emma to draw parallels with her own life.

My great great great grandfather lived in St Martin In The Fields!

Maybe he crossed paths with Brian Blessed’s ancestors.

Really like this girl a lot.

[@Marcel_Audubon]

I don't- she seems like a big phony baloney

Top top lady.

[@Marcel_Audubon]

huh? sez who??

I'm not 100% convinced by the GGG Grandmother suddenly turning up in London with another man and a child 😕 How do they know that is the same Mary Ann, there is no other information there to confirm it is her. She wasn't with her husband that is correct, and he could well have married the second lady, just because they can't find a record of a marriage doesn't mean it didn't happen.
