Yes I have a well thumbed copy.

Harriet's daughter married married a Dunk(a Master Mariner) who is on my Grandpa's side but my Grandma was an Adams and they have fished in Hastings since the 17th century.

The fishing families tended to marry into other fishing families so my tree is full of connections to most of the well known names hence the well thumbed copy with lots of page markers!It is ironic that the fishing finished  for my direct line when Hastings needed builders to provide housing for all the ag. labs moving for work from the outlying districts and my Grandma never knew of her long connection.

Thanks again
Best wishes

Not very good at texting, I'm afraid.  My. name is David Allen and I am a Grandson of Nellie Allen (Dunk).  I believe we might be distant kin.  My email is dave6330@yahoo.com.
