Hi Anne,
I am researching Henry Arthur Wakeham Caunter who was baptised on 14 January 1839 at Widecombe-in-the-Moor. Do you know what became of him? I have researched him through to the 1874 electoral roll, where he is at Linchaford in Widecombe, but I can't find any reference to him after this date.
Regards
James Tuckett

I have just found your site & can't wait to read more. My connection is Tonkin: Elizabeth Tonkin being my GG Grandmother (making Nicholas Uren & Joan Harvey my 6xGs). Thankyou so much for your amazing volume of work!

My wife and I are the current owners of the home once owned by George and Marguerite Norsworthy, who occupied the property from 1950-1986. Your web site has helped us trace the history of ownership for our dear old house, and has given us a sense of connection with the previous owners. Thank you.

Hello Anne, I'm gonna write about Flt. Lt. Hugh H. Norsworthy in my new book on WW2. He attacked and sunk a ferry near my birthplace on September 3, 1943. I hope you allow me to use the photo of Hugh, mentioning you be the source?

regards
Kees

Hello Anne,
Hopefully I can fill you in on a couple of blanks for Bernard George Clynick.
He was killed in action serving aboard HMS Ardent in June 1940. He was a Commisioned engineer on board when the ship was sunk in the Arctic ocean off the coast of Norway. He was the husband of Louise Rose Clynick of Durrington, Sussex.
Hope this helps.

Came across your website by accident when researching gilbards almshouse in newton abott Devon where my gg granddad Joshua Roberts, aged 94 was residing prior to his death in 1901.

I see from your home page that you invite further info /suggestions so, if acceptable will provide details of my branch of the Roberts family tree shortly.

Hi Ann
Stumbled upon your webpage while searching for photos of my gg grandfathers house he grew up in in Puslinch. Which you called Aberfoyle Farm now the Pro Shop of Springfield Golf and country club.
His father, William Graham settled there.

The lot was north of Aberfoyle. William built a stone cottage and stable, and a frame bank barn and he and his family moved in. ** The Annals of Puslinch tell us that a sawmill operated on that property in the 1850's.*** The house is still standing, part of the golf course now, Number 2054 Gordon Street.

So it was wonderful to see some older photos of the house even if it was after William sold his property, thanks.

Just wanted to say found your website when I was looking for information on Joll's cottages - my great grandparents Jim and Bessie Easton lived at number 9, with their 2 boys and 2 girls.
