Hi Margaret,

Thank you so very much - yes, it is exactly what I was after. I needed to confirm that Margaret Loder was a sibling to the other children you list born to Letitia and James which you have done. The rest of the background information is a bonus. You are a gem!

Hello Margaret.

I have a Jesse Dyer in Australia. I am trying to track him, and I believe he may be the one born around 1853 in Crawley, near Witney, who shows in the 1861 census. He married into my wife's family - they came from Cambridgeshire.

Can you find any info on his birth please?

Thanks

Jim
