To Mensor38 - Yes Michael. I didn't realise it was you. We got in touch via my Uncle Ken Shepherd who lives in Lincoln. You know I was writing what I had on the family for his 80th birthday. Well I tried to email you a copy but It was returned. I shall try again if you are interested.
To Diane - I am in the UK and have also seen the graves in Claxby as my uncle lives not too far from there. He says that his aunt Peg said that 'we were related to the Tennysons on the wrong side of the sheets!' He didn't take much notice at the time and now she has passed away. She lived with Harriet and Josephs son Frederick (my gg grandfather) for a time and so would have had the story first hand. I am absolutely convinced that there is a connection but it is just proving it.
I haven't researched for a while but shall start looking again. I remember that Tennysons in Paull interested me . If you are interested in my side of the family, I can send you some info.
Kind regards,
Sue
