Some of the entries are hard to read at the moment the FHS has to get the readers serviced. Will search for James and Mary next week.

I really have to get my head around all this 2 months ago my Coles family was a tiny, 2 people having 3 children (with only 1 of those producing offspring)a brother and parents now in the space of this short time this family has done a Topsy – and if these are the grandparents of Joseph and Henry Boyde there are another 3 siblings to count in. Exciting, definitely only trouble is how do you actually go about proving they are ours. Dates certainly fit but is that proof?

You have done a marvellous job and managed to fit in so much to your trip, I would have expected the genealogy to take up so much time but you saw such a lot of things that interest you and that was really good.

By the way wonder what a White Iron Smith is but it certainly sounds like it fits into Henry Boyde’s occupation as an Ironmonger.

Talk soon
