Hi,
Thanks for the reply. I knew that a branch of the family moved to the USA but I had few details. I now have a reasonably complete story of Edward Hugh Gaten, his brothers and sisters, parents and grandparents, and most of their descendents in England. There is too much to put in a post here but I would be happy to forward all of this to you by PM.
Best wishes,
Edward Gaten (undoubtedly named after MY great-grandfather)
