perhaps we have a connection between the Davey's and the Waspes?

Mary Ann Lemon is actually 86 and is mum in law. Which makes little sense.

Summer, you got a pair of Lemons there !

Ah yes a surname used as a first name, that used to happen often

Except... he might well be Leimon Davey on the original

OK looked up Lemon and in June 1851 there was a birth of Lemon Lemon! Hows that - wonder if thats a rellie then. or did I look up marriages - oh heck! lol

Tina x

Ah, just realised I got me towns mixed up... ignore me lol.

Now pupils, don't forget to show your workings out in the margin ...... and in pencil please !

Could this be rellies - I wonder. It would explain the Lemon as the first name and as it looks like a foreign name the same applies to yestersdays name as it could have been Leiman or Leeman (with accents etc).
