Farming plays a big part in the roles of many of our ancestors, the history of this way of life is very interesting.

Hi Chris,
I'm looking at your George BOYCE b. 1806 who married Caroline PICKETT again to see if they link with my line. Have you discovered anything more about George in the last few years?. I'm pretty sure I've found him in 1841 census in For Posts with a William PICKETT and two other BOYCE males George & William who were carpenters.

Spelling, my thoughts on the subject

Thought I would mention this as I have found some instances where folks say the spelling of surnames and place names are not correct and can't be their ancestor. But when you go back in time and folk learnt to write they all wrote the words phonetically, i, e, o and y can all be transposed. Gibbins, Gibbons, Gybbons, Gebbens. etc. So keep an open mind and think about the local dialect, the speaker may have a cold, or a lisp!! In old wills and documents you will often find the same name with a… Continue
