I descend from gypsy/traveller/pikey stock.

I don't own a black and white horse, or a caravan, I don't tarmac drives and am not scared of dogs. I talk with a**ney accent and do not smell.

Do you Have Gypsy Ancestors?

How would you know if your great grandparents were gypsies or travellers? Look into your family tree and see if any of your ancestors had these occupations. If so they might have been gypsies.

Hawker, pedlar, basket maker, mat maker, brush maker, chair bottomer, tinker, tinman, knife grinder, dealer, peg maker, umbrella mender, chimney sweep, horse dealer.
