Just an update on my research into the Despard family trees.
I now have 11 different trees but all are linked via DNA.
If anyone wants any help with this family please let me know.

I am talking about all the Despard family I have found which is over 600.
I coordinate a group of over 100 members of a Despard group.
Plus have access to over 40 Despard DNA links.

John, it might be worth your while to make a post on the  forum section called "one name studies"? 
If you do, make sure the first word in the subject is "Despard" so people can find it alphabetically, when they click on "Subject".  (Explained in the help section at the top of the link below)
