No Need to thank us Its you we must thank, I think everyone of us reading have often wondered just what things were like,and we all have I suspect family members who have been left alone through death to face to future,and wondered how you go on from there especially in the 1800's.You have provided insight Matt and for that I thank you.

Hi Matt,

What faith Mary Ann had.   How did she manage to carry on?

Mr Blondie is now following this and thinks it is really good.

Thanks guys...

I think I have inherited her grit...I am pleased to say! Michael's death was only half of what she later had to endure.

Promise you won't have to wait long, lol...next bit will be up tonight

Another enthralling episode bringing history to life for us.  You have such a talent Matt, I wish I could write even half as well.
Mary Ann would be proud to have her history recorded so eloquently, she sounds like a very strong woman who took what life dished out and dealt with it bravely.

What a lovely way of recording your family history, can't wait for the next part.

I've had challenges in life but I've always had food in my belly, clothes on my back and a roof over my head.

Thank you, Matt.

Regards,
Josephine

Hope you guys keep reading, and thanks for the comments...

Here's another avid reader of your story, Matt. I shed real tears reading about Michael's moving passing.

I agree with everyone on here that you should get this published. In time too, there should be a film or at least a BBC drama, if you don't mind me saying. This is REAL LIFE and the story should be told,

I am addicted now......

.....thank you for the chance to learn about your family.
