I am one of the great great granddaughters of Arthur Lloyd. I wonder if I could talk to someone from the Wood family who is alive.
Hi Valmae, my Nan is also a great great Grandaughter to Daisy she believes. She doesn’t know much but Daisy became a Smith, and that’s where her family tree started. It would be very interesting to hear what you know, if anything!

Hi Valmae! I am from the Wood family, Marie is my fathers great aunt.
My grandmother maiden name Kezia Lillian Gotts born 189? in London is believed to be related to Marie Lloyd but we do not know for sure or in what way if she was ? Dawn Smith
Am emailing you direct
Hi Dawn, my Nan believes her blood line is Smith, as Daisy (Marie’s sister) married to a Smith. My Nan also has mentioned that her Grandmothers name was Lillian.. possibly named after your Grandmother?
Daisy married Donald Munro in 1899
Marie Lloyd was my grandmothers great aunt, through her fathers side. I would love to find out how the bloodline goes from her down to my family now.
Hi there, Marie Lloyd is my great grandfathers aunt. I was wondering if I could get in contact with some distant relatives?
Hi Amy, Marie was my fathers great aunt!
Hi, My name is Anne Bulcraig (was Wood before I married),
I have always been told my family are related to Marie Lloyd, and that she was a sister or Aunt to my great grandfather. or something like that.
My great grandfather was Frederick Wood, and from London area. I would love to know where Marie links with my family.
I have developed a bit of an interest in Marie Lloyd over the last year or two and also in Marie’s sister’s especially in all of there later lives although there doesn’t appear to be much information regarding any of them on line except for maybe Alice who became well known on stage in America during the first decade of the 1900s. Also of interest for me is the year each of them died and so far I have discovered that Rosie died in 1944, Alice died in 1949 Maud died in 1951 Daisy died in 1961 & Annie died in 1976 and as for Grace her date is usually shown as 1961 but I am not sure if that is the true year of her death and is not being confused with her sister Daisy who also died in 1961 anyway does anyone know the correct date of when Grace died or was it also 1961 the same as Daisy?.
Born Marie Helen Wood. Took Grace when Marie adopted her stage name. Died 20 Nov 1961 in Epsom.

I have to say that I cannot confirm your linkage to the Wood family. All the Woods in Marie’s line are included on my website.
Best wishes in your further research

Hello Anne!
I was told similar when I was younger…….unless I’m mixing her up with Lily Langtry!!
Hope you’re well.
My late grandmother’s cousin was Marie Lloyd. Marie Lloyd attended my nan’s 9th party around 1894/5. Grandmother was very Victorian in thoughts and dress,being prim and proper and was embarressed to acknowledge she was related to Marie Lloyd. x
