I went to an old Aunty's funeral and, while talking to my cousin's found out that--my Paternal Uncle has alway's thought that we were distantly related to Captian Cook --don't laugh. I found his site on the web and found two names which are on my tree, I mailed the contact who sent my mail to Australia to the man who had researched Captain Cook's tree. I have just had the answer that I am related to this man in Australia but not directly to Captain Cook so I am soooooo disappointed. Regards Ann,Darlington |

Maybe not Captain Cook, but you have found another person you are related to. |

My mother was convinced that there was a connection to Lady Hamilton on her side, but all I've got so far is poor Kentish agricultural labourers. |
