Hello

I'm Bob's distant cousin, Brenda, and we share descent from the illegitimate son of Mary Harris by George Roots, carpenter of Biddenden.  I have only just found this forum, and don't have anything much to add except that I've been told that another Roots family in Bidenden at the time were related to the Rootes car manufacturers.  Another branch of the same family?

Would love to hear from anyone with any further info re: George Roots.
