From other posts and particularly that of 'goldlabel' the family I referred to are direct descendants of Richard Simpson and presumably relatives of yourself. I went out -all too briefly - with one of the girls in the early 70's. I saw the above thread and thought I could help the query.
I hope my contribution has been of some use to 'farmerjosephine' as it seems to have made clear a family line associated with Charles Moore, although there is a contradiction between 'tidybooks'' post that a Charles Moore had 6 Children and a servant, and 'goldlabel's information that he had no issue (possibly no male issue, possibly another person of the same name, possibly victims of the higher incidence of infant mortality?). As 'apanderson' has implied, one becomes interested despite oneself. (I wonder how the reid query is going).
