Hello Firstly, I noticed one of the churchyard-hunting offers was for Holsworthy area: that's North Devon. In general, if I'm not sure where a place is I start with Multimap, or the like. It usually works, but not always. Otherwise, you need a gazetteer. Secondly - yes, there is a competing thread - I found the Devon-only thread before I found this one. Thirdly - noting the last posting number is a useful way of tracking whether or not it's worth having a look at the thread. For anyone who hasn't noticed the facilities (and I know how easy it is to miss the obvious) there are two useful ones:[1] view own threads (so you only check the ones to which you've been posting) and [2] latest reply first (so you can see what's been added without trekking through the whole list). My Cornwall names are mainly round Mevagissey: BAR(R)ON - SCANTLEBURY - BARRETT SEACOMBE/SECCOMBE - THOMAS - BROKENSHA (and variants) MITCHELL - OLVER - BARTILLA There's a clutch of names which are East-Cornwall or Devonport / Morice Town / Compton Gifford / Stoke Damerel PRYNN - COKE GOULD - RUSE - WADLIN(G)/WADLETON HICKS - BUNNY/BONNY - RICKARD - GIMBLETT/GEMLET - JAGO - ALLING cheers Christine |
