Would like to hear about the lines of those members
who were on this list before I became List
Administrator. Welcome to four new members. Thank
you for responding to my Emails. Happy Hunting.
Maybe another list member may be connected to your
lines.
If anyone has census details about any Chants or Parish Entries your line or
not. Would like if you could post
to the list. Maybe another on the list may have a
connection.
