Essex / Re: does anyone live in Chelsmford please
« on: Wednesday 15 August 12 19:59 BST (UK)  »
Dear maz1,  A little difficult finding someone when you can't give any basic information, but, if you are in  the UK, go into Google, put in 192.com, then put in the name of the person you are looking for, and i8f you have it, the town, and it might give yoiu some info. (192 shows telephone numbers, electoral roll details, etc., of course, if they are exdirectory..................then nothing will come up, ) and of course, you have the additional problem of looking for someone called Brown, not a really obscure surname.

regards,

Essex / Re: William Sillitoe Sible Hedingham

Hello Jayby,

  I don't know where in the world you are, but there are still Sillitoes and Rultons in the Hedingham area, Mr Sillitoe built our bookcases for us 18 years ago, and his boy did some local carpentry work for us, ( and very good it was) about five years ago, and Doug Rulton has done some plumbing work for us,

Now I know it says on the ball 'RAF Chigwell' but I used to live in Grange Hill, Chigwell, and I've never heard of RAF Chigwell, however there was a very active RAF Station at Fairlop, about two miles from Chigwell, perhaps Chigwell was a service depot or something ??

Essex Lookup Requests / Re: Essex Burials Earls Colne St. Andrews

Dearest Susie,

 On the last census count, Earls Colne had a population of 3,389 persons, and I forgot to mention on my last that it also has a doctors surgery and three pubs, one of which the Drapers Arms, also does bed and breakfast, it also has twp golf courses and a light airfield, built during WW2 by some outfield called the USAAF, from which fighter escorts flew...............the population oF Earls Colne so like it here that in 2000 they purchased through public subscription and some lottery money a field now named 'the Millenium Green, which, along with the two golf courses and the airfield means we are surrounded by green fields, not rows and rows of houses, selfish, but great...................anyhow, go into Google, put in Earls Colne.............

Regards,

 Bob ( you can keep Hawaii, been there, it's just like Spain)

Susie, Susie, Susie,

  It's not a town, it's a village, and if I inherited a £1 million, we wouldn't move, it has exactly everything we need, it has a library, a post office, a co op, a butcher, a greengrocer a hairdresser and an hourly bus service, it's brilliant, and of course, my wife lives here, we have spoken before Susie, I'm the tall fellow with a new car and the Tom Selleck looks, and I don't recall any Markham or Collins currently in the village, although 300 years ago..................................

Regards,

 Suave, kind, and modest,
Bob

Susie,
 
 Our church, St Andrews, is Church of England, but before the reformation, ? well we didn't have a Church of England until King Henry VIII upset the Pope when he wanted to change wives, but for the last 500 years or so.............. and yes it is a nice place, we don't even have a police station anymore, we often leave our cars unlocked, and there are a lot of very nice people around  ( of which |i am one !!).

Regards,

Bob

Susie,  If you go into 'Google' put in 'Earls Colne, Essex' it will come up with all sorts of information, it has a slight claim to fame, the Lord of the Manor here, a Mr De Vere, also known as the Earl of Oxford, is reputed to be the true author of the works of Shakespear because Mr De Vere spent a lot of time in Southwark, in Spouth London the same place that Shakespears Globe Theatre was and is nbow rebuily, and that William Shakespear wasn't all that educated ( whereas the Earls of Oxford was ) Shakespear was by trade a glove maker, although if he could read and write, and had a good imagination...............
