Family Members

So much of this work could not have been undertaken without the help of all of my cousins and fellow researchers.  My grateful thanks to you all for providing copies of your heirlooms, photographs and articles.  However, don't be complacent, I am always on the "look out" for more so we can make this a central site for our research.

Dedication

I would like to dedicate this site to all of my relatives both near and far for their many kindnesses over the years, their unstinting support and their selfless sharing of their research and resources, without them, how little we would know about our family and its origins.  To all of our ancestors without whom, we would not be here! To my VERY understanding wife and my Children who never forget to prize me away from the keyboard to feed and water me, drag me out squinting into the daylight and look after their obsessed "old man".

Finally to my Mother and Father,  without them and their encouragement and support, this site would not exist!
