Hi Mike,
My copy arrived this morning before nine o'clock. Everything had to wait
including breakfast as I eagerly inserted the CD into the machine. I have
just spent a very enjoyable and exciting thirty five minutes doing look-ups
on my Radnorshire ancestors giving me even more information to add to my
family history. My great grandfather Hugh Mills at fourteen was working
away from home as a shepherd obviously there wasn't enough work on the 20
acres at Plentifulgates to justify him remaining there. By the way does
anyone have any idea why a property in the middle of rural Radnorshire
should be given such an odd name?
Many thanks to you and your team for this wonderful Census CD to help
researchers like myself add to their family history. It is so easy to use.
I eagerly await the next one!!
Regards,
Margaret Harvey
