Wrong half of that side of the family, I'm afraid, Rabbit, that was the Bartlett side, with dear old Dinah and her daughter Anne who had the live in boyfriend.
We had a bit of fun chasing them, didn't we

[Rabbit B]

Well Paula,

I asked you because, I have found in my family that there were introductions, where Brothers ended up marrying Sisters of the Groom or Bride, ? met at the family wedding Christening     It was a common occurrence I think.

My maternal G.Gran's brothers married her Sisters in law, and Brothers in law on her Husbands side, married relis of the  sisters on the other side if you can keep up with it! 

I also found it happening in the other half of the family at the other end of the Country so I wondered if you had considered the possibility.  This lot of yours are at least in the same County, mine were all over the place!
