Oh, Merry, you should know better than to challenge me! Oh, alright then, I won't tell you about the Fishes, I shall tell you about James Holden married Margaret Taylor. She died, poor thing, and he remarried, pdq, to widow MRS MARY TAYLOR. She was a rellie by marriage of his dead wife. A son was born, of course, called James Holden. He married - Mary Taylor, his cousin. They jhad children, some of whom were called James and Mary. This Mary Holden married her cousin - James Taylor! Anyone got a pair of scissors? Olde Crone |

Merry I worked with a chap once whose surname was Lamb. When his wife was expecting, they were worried they would have a son, because her favourite boys' name was Sam and his was Sean. Luckily they had two daughters. I once knew an old lady called Pearl Button. nell |

merry perhaps your Lamb's are related to Stephen Fry's Lamm's. You must have enough for a flock by now. (Or maybe enough for a decent barbie in the summer. Mint sauce and rosmary anyone :-)))))))))) |

Merry, I've got a Butcher you can borrow. Lol Helen, I went to school with a Sean Lamb. And to make things worse, he actually had very blond tight curly hair. The poor kid got paid out something shocking. |

I have a Mary Shepherd you can borrow. My problem is George Blacker, my rellie George was the local G.p. and by all accounts a very popular man. Not only did all his children and grandchildren have at least one George all their cousins did as well - about thirty in one village. I would have hated to be the local teacher. best wishes Anne |

If you have need of Pinkers, Merry, help yourself to some of mine. I have inherited zillions of them. Beverley, who finally got back home |
