Hi Angela

It is really most helpful if you post the information/ replies that you have on the boards, rather than offering them by PM - that way we can all help out.  It also removes any pressure on your correspondents to do ALL the work.

We are all hoping to help!

kind regards, Arranroots  ;)
I do i Do  PM

Gloucestershire / Re: WinterBourne Frampton Symes Name
« on: Wednesday 28 November 07 13:57 GMT (UK)  »
The reference to Sir John Henry Greville Smyth is probably to do with the fact that he, along with Richard Symes and two others, were the owners of Durdham Down in Bristol. They sold it to the City Corporation by Act of Parliament in 1861. You can view a copy of the Act at: http://www.bristol.gov.uk/ccm/cms-service/download/asset/?asset_id=19029109
Thanks i put the Message on because there was some one else looking for the family name  (Symes)
the name i am looking for is Walter Semple he Got the D.C.M. medal Love to find a photo of him
