Hi Fue
There was a celebrity antique programme on the other night which featured John Lethbridge. My mother's maternal family name is Lethbridge and we know that her great grandfather hails from Devon.
On seeing the programme me mum rang and spoke to the museum and they have spent a couple of days researching for her. They reckon that it seems fairly likely that he is one of our ancestors....lots of common factors etc. We do need to do lots more searching and are planning a trip down to view parish records to confirm the link so it is very very early days yet. Will let you know if there is any more progress.
