Title: DAVIES / DAVIS ~ London/Lancs/Hereford
Post by: Dartmoor on Thursday 31 July 08 09:58 BST (UK)

Looking for all Davies names and varients.

I'm particularly interested in stonemasons whose names are from the Chelsea/Battersea/Brompton/Edmonton area of London, Blackburn/Crosby area of Lancashire and Ross on Wye/Hereford area of Herefordshire.

I have a growing database with names I'm willing to do a look up, just give me PM with your request and details.
