Hi Calverley Lad,
Skimmed down some of your posts, and I am wondering when your log in name is Calverley Lad and you say in one post that you have a distant relation in Esholt. Are you by any chance researching the Calverley family who took their name from the Calverley village.
And the Esholt connection would be around 14th century, when Isabelle de Calverley was elected as prioress of Esholt priory. Another Isabella de Calverley also prioress later in 14th century, desendents through isbellas brothers became nuns. I am following the Calverley line from John Le Scot and Larderina Gospatrick down to date (my Mum was a Calverley) the line I follow is through loads of Williams and Walters as in The Calverley Charters. At William b. 1415 & Agnes Tempest, I follow through their son John. Whereas their eldest son William gets interesting as that goes to the Calverley murder of the children where the father was pressed to death, and also from William b 1444 goes down to the current British Royal family (via Princess Di, so onto Princes William and Harry)
Are you by any chance following the same family? It seemed too much of a coinsidence for you to call yourself Calverley Lad and then mention Esholt that I just had to find out.
I know this probably isn't the proper link to ask, although ties with Esholt, maybe if we are following the same path, could you advise the best link to follow.
Kindest of regards (sorry if not the same line and I've wasted your time)
