I AM ON FACEBOOK AS  AMBROSE DIGHTON 

I believe I have you as a Friend on Facebook but I'm not sure what the connection is.  I have a cousin (surname Harrand) who married a Dighton (not you apparently) but I assume you may have some connection to him somehow.  I'll pm you with my details.

Hi Pookethegib

i would be greatful if you could let me have info from your tree  I am reasearching my family tree but really stuck on my maternal side due to confusing names. not sure if her maiden name was Dighton/Boswell/smith. conflicting names on various certficates. i know my great grandmother lived on Fanny on the hill in welling in caravan until her death. my grandmothers name was Esther
