Just thought I'd pop back to say that Golden Key is up on the blog :) http://bigharryunknown.wordpress.com/2012/02/29/golden-key-b-1837/
someone on ancestry has a photo of him, but it's 'private' :( I've sent a polite message asking if it may be used in the blog, so fingers crossed.


Also, this is terrible, and sorry if I offend anyone, but when researching the names, I looked up
Carrot Harsnip.
He'd died at the age of 5 - and my boyfriend asked, completely innocently - "What of? Consumption?"

 ::)

I felt so bad for laughing, but we def had a giggle!
