After Trish's successes, I think it's about time that I found someone on the board that I'm related to. I'm giving myself till the end of the week. I reckon my mums lines are the most likely. Anyone with links to Potterpury ?

You had to choose Webb didn't you Paul!! Why not one of the others??? I have Mabel Webb and don't know a darned thing about her - she was my real grandmother but died (flu) when my mother was very little. She married into the Bristow clan about 1918ish

Hope you don't mind me butting in Paul, but this is for Bec I was searching for gravestones for someone in Middlewich, Cheshire and came across one for David Batty who died in 1835. Took a piccy of it in case it was anything to do with you. Let me know if you want a copy. Sorry Paul, will just get my coat...lol Luv & Hugs Jxx
