Thanks yet again for these excellent web sites.  It all makes for great reading and I can't wait to head over to Fermanagh to see for myself and to get hold of the Mervyn Busteed book too.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge with me.

To Minimac, in reply to your looking for Charlotte Elizabeth Leah Bestall, my friend has this family in her family tree. She has no computer, hence I am helping her. I would be very interested to get in touch. Thanks in advance.

Charlotte Elizabeth Lena (not Leah) Bestall was my paternal grandmother.  I would be most interested to know how your friend is related to the Bestalls as we may be able to swop information.

I look forward to hearing more.

Hello again Minimac,
My friend is related to both Bestall and Caldwells. The Caldwell's on her mothers side. She hasn't got a computer. Could you send me a PM with your e mail address, so I can send you her address and yours could correspond by letter or I can be 'go-between' if yours want! I cant send a PM yet, but that may mean I cant receive one yet either. If not, I will get some more info for you. regards meanwhile.

Hello good to hear from you again and perhaps your friend would like to take a look at this topic I posted when I was trying to find out more about the Bestall family. Once again I learnt a lot from the experts on this wonderful site.

Thanks and hear from you again.

Thanks for putting me in touch with your friend.  I now have photos of my grandmother's father and mother and her parents and brother.  Had never seen any photos before.  My father and your friend are actually second cousins.  Unbelievable!  So thrilling to see what they look like and match up the family resemblances.

Have you heard anything more from your Bestall contact?  It would be lovely to complete more of the jigsaw and make contact with him.

Hear from you soon I hope and thanks again.
