Kal,

A number of my ancestors were born and lived in Sutton Courtenay. I plan to pop over there in November (if the weather's not too wet), I can have a look around the churchyard for any Herrings if you like? NIcky

Kal,

That's ok - don't worry. I'm the same as you, never need an excuse to show someone how to trace their family tree, but end up taking on more work than you know what to do with. Hope he didn't charge you for mending your modem??
