Approx 1965 I had a penpal in London who was a grand-daughter of my grand-father's sister or brother. Her 1st name is Lesley, the ancestor was Culling. Can anyone help put me in contact with her again.

Do you not have any surname at all for Lesley ? are you saying she is a grandaughter for one of the above?

This is the right family jax but I was 12-15 at the time and can't remember.
I still have earings she sent me. The box says I and D Mallack, Watchmakers & Jewellers, 46 Oxford St, London WI &190 High Road, Kilburn, NW.
And yes to the 2nd question.
Linda

Do you know when she was born?

Rose

Hi

Which one of the above Cullings was your direct ancestor?


Val

Hi I have traced one Lesley in the family and have sent PMs to Mangnall.


They haven't been opened yet.

Val has sent through the info I need.
I will keep you all posted as to the outcome.

This will make our trip to England even more exciting!
Linda

Thanks for the update. Hope it works out.

Rose

Thank you to those that took the time to post on my query.

I have had an email this morning from Lesley so I will definately be keeping in touch with her this time.

It is so easy now with modern technology. It was 6 weeks by boat from England to New Zealand, now it is the click of a mouse!

regards Linda :-)
