Marlene,
FAIRY's at the bottom of the garden time is it again?  Actually, I'm rushed off my feet at the moment....only joking!
They're already in my red notebook to be looked up next week as well - no Bank Holiday to truncate the week. (The green one is completely full now...)

Keith, I really don't know how you keep track of it all.  :-\

[Steph and Thomas Medcalf travelled to OZ in 1854 (shipwrecked on the way in the middle of the Indian Ocean :o ) They lost everything except their lives. They certainly had an eventful journey.]

Thanks for all your help

Di,
How exciting!  Were they actually swept up by the sea on some unfriendly shore, or did another boat rescue them...?

Hi Keith,

Swept up onto an unfriendly shoreline of an uninhabited island. They were rescued a few days later after almost no food/clothing/water and walking many miles - and all this with 7 children under 13 - not my idea of fun.

We have a copy of a letter Thomas wrote in the form of a diary detailing the whole thing.  8)

A bit of excitement in the family history  ;D

Hi Keith,

I am looking for a marriage of a Thomas Freear to Rebecca (surname unknown)

they had a few children I know about Charles, Henry, Robert and Ann... any info on this lot would be wonderful.

in fact any info on "Freears" would be wonderful....

I have info on the family of Thomas Freear 1764 - 1847 and Elizabeth Ward, c 1763 - 1820 well their Baptisms in March anyway and a few burials but any help you could provide would be gratefully received


Thanks again

Mo

Hi, Mo,
Hopefully will have a look in March for the FREEAR's (the place, not the month - next week beginning 8th May!)
Keith
p.s. Off to poke around in Felbrigg, Norfolk, today...

Hi Keith

Many thanks for the Apthorpe look ups last week. I'm with descendants in cold and miserable Derby at present, (although Fri and Sat a.m. were hot), returning home from East Midlands at a ridiculously early hour in the morning.

Thanks again

David

Hi, David,
Yes, just as miserable a bit further east at Newmarket, on the Heath for the 1000 Guineas.  The driving drizzle drove us home before they'd even run the Classic, and we watched it on T.V.  Roll on the summer...
