1851 Census - Chorlton upon Medlock

Thanks for replying to my posting. I could not acknowledge your response any sooner as I lost my internet and phone connection (as well as electricity and water) on September 12 during Hurricane Ivan. My internet and phone service was only reinstalled last week and I picked up your message today. FYI, I live in the Cayman Islands and 95% of all buildings on the island were either damaged or destroyed. We still have a roof over our head but are still sleeping on the lounge floor for lack of useable bedrooms. It all now seems quite insignificant when one watches the news about the destruction caused by the tsunami in Asia.

Best regards.
Richard

Many thanks for sending me this information.  It would be untruthful to say that I haven't previously received this, but I still do appreciate you taking the time to respond to my original enquiry.

Regards
