Hi Amber1976,
What a remarkable story. I will have to look into this, sounds really interesting.
Must admit there is a whole lot of confusion with these climos even though it is an unusual name.
The "saunders" came from Ann "SANDERS" who Matthew Climo married in 1788. Its highly unlikely anyone would be named saunders/sanders before this.
I will look into it and let you know if I find anything.
By the way, really appreciate the info and the photos.
