Blackpearl my foot..........a blooming great Diamond more like.............

BUT.....Joanne
you know too much about this family to be taking it off the Parish records!
it ain't that easy (I wish it was!) so reveal..............?
I did note that when entering the info on my old version of family tree maker it changed the dates   i.e when entering 1708 it replaced it with 1708/1709 for example.........this means that this family has records on their database

Lol Bryant!

All that I have learned about your family I literally learned yesterday after reading your messages and I went off on the the hunt on the IGI at familysearch.org!

You'll probably be best off checking over all the info I gave you but I am pretty sure about it.  I only live a few miles from Tidenham and Woolaston (by the way incase you don't know - they are lovely places).

Hi again Bryant.  Just a theory I am working on here as we may be long distant cousins after all - but do you have a Mary Ann Dorrington b. abt 1853 Tidenham marrying one of your Reeks relatives?

Cheers

Hello Joanne

Most of my info on the Reekes.........you gave me!

I have only the direct line info...........picking the Reekes family up when Alice Ann Reekes (c.1853) married John Preest in 1870 within the Chepstow R.D

She had brothers/sisters but I haven't looked for their marriages etc

Regards
