Are you sure you've got the spelling right? If you found it on Ancestry, it might be a mistranscription for 'collier' (miner). |

Far be it from me to doubt you, OC, but where did you find that? I can only find it on Google as an obvious typo for 'courier'. |

Mary - interesting you should say that - Lycos and Ask are the same. But did you know there were places named slaughter .... whoops, off the point, shut up. Clive |

I did know about Upper and Lower Slaughter, yes - I must have driven past, I think. I even went to college with a poor girl called Slaughter. |
