Hi Can you do research for me. I have a family name Pridding that still live
in this area and are unwilling to part with any family history. All I have
is some census. My grandmother was Rosanna Pridding and she was born in
Holt... My father is Ken Cooke and he still lives in Holt. ( My mother and
father div in 1960) and I only seen my father a few times when I was an
infant... I missed all the family in Wales. No they are all dying off and I
still have no knowledge of them. I know that the pridding now have a moving
company and I did write to them and was told that my letter was sent to my
father and he told me that I shouldn't peruse this any further. The
Pridding did own a farm called Commonwood Holt I think... If you can tell
me how much you would charge ? and what other information you would like ...
I can get back to you.
