Hi Adam,

Very many thanks for all your hard work! The Pallister's link into my tree in many more ways than I'd realised!

I'm not sure about the Oxley & Pearson inscriptions - need to investigate those further but all much appreciated.

I would appreciate the Ridley info, please.

Thanks.

Hello Rupiezucki. Is this Ridley request related to your other posting about Ridley?
If it is I do not think it will help because  the six Ridley gravestone inscriptions that I have are are dating from 1729 and are well established families unlike the ones that you are looking for. I am not smirking because I know how difficult it is sorting out difficult families. I gave up family research a long time ago because of the same problems that you are having with your search.

Adam.

Hi Adam,

Not well established?  Hmph! 

Yes, they are related - My earliest Ridley, so far is William born 1801 Winston - but he is only the earliest for now!

I am finding that there is a plethora of Ridleys, and, having hit a brick wall for now, was hoping to try coming at it from the other end - read earlier, in the hope that I can make some connections.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Holly
