Title: COLTON in Barley, Herts??????
Post by: juliepaillin on Tuesday 15 February 05 19:12 GMT (UK)

Hi,

Is anyone reseraching Coltons in Barley. I have My great granmother Gertrude Colton's father was Thomas Colton, Born Barley, Hertfordshire. Married Emma and later Lizzie. Also had Emily daughter and lived in Leicester.

I would be interested in anyone who has researched the coltons from Barley/nuthampstead.

Or anyone who has the census or BDM info that could tell me more.

Kind Regards

Julie
