HiNeville - are you able to contact me pls- via here seeing that it is sometime since your comment was made. I am a descendant of the Joseph Rankins whom were with Richard Bell in 1851. I have been trying to prove forever that Richard and Samuel Alexander Bell are indeed brothers. Considering that Sam's nephews are via sisters Bell who married into the Haughton family there is every possibility but finding proof positive has been painful. Joseph Rankin senior's wife was known as Lucy or Ellen Bell - richards sister at least. So would really love to know more about the Bell family so that I can connect more of the dots.
Just came across this site.
I have information about Bell and Black match makers.
Richard Bell is my ancestor.
Can give you information by PDF on info for our family tree.
Cheers
