Since I started this, I have emailed countless people and left messages on so many site message boards I forgot most of them...but I have finally found a living relative - all the way over in Canada!!!! She has details of the side of the family who emigrated in the early 1800s, and I have details of the ones who stayed in England! Heres to many hours of emails and letters swapping info - just had to share with everyone! Sarah

I too have found a second cousin in Australia - it's great that we can work together on our family tree and save each other some money into the bargain. Lynne
