wow, thanks for all these replys everyone!
I won't be able to answer your comments in this sitting, school run in a mo!
but to be going on with, I've met Rosemary Weir, lovely lady...my Dad (also interested in our tree) put me in touch with her and she gave me a locket that belonged to my G G grandmother.
There are a Wones clan in Norfolk, I haven't found the connection between them and "my" lot yet...I live in hope.
There is a Simon Wones, who went to USA and we suspect he may be the brother of Edward, which gave us the "yorkshire" idea. Lots of Woneses crop up in the records office I visited with dad, up in Yorkshire, name escapes me right now, argh!
All this is really rusty to me, I had my 3rd baby 9 months ago so all my tree hunting has gone on hold. I will get back to this thread really shortly as there are some suggestions here I haven't tried! If you are particularly interested I do have a tree on ancestry. I no longer have a valid subscription though, so I may be limited with searches.
Catch you all later I hope!
NIki
