[Facts] Re: spizenny
in reply to a message by bouston
Looks like her maiden name was probably Smith - there's a listing on Ancestry for a marriage between a Cook and a Spizenny Smith in Breconshire. There was a Spizenny Smith born in the first quarter of 1890 in the Weobley district of Herefordshire, so it would be worth getting her birth certificate if you want to know more about her. I'd say she was almost certainly from a Romani family, given the name.
