My mistake Libby. A mis-quote on my part. I do have the BIRTH reference from the GRO Index.

As for struggling to get back to the 1700's -- I am stuck with my 4x great grandfather William Webb, born about 1749 somewhere in Bedfordshire -- and I've been stuck there for over 10 years on that line. But I have got back to 1691 down the line of his wife (4x ggm) Alice Brightman to her grandfather Richard Brightman, and then back another 4 generations to 1550 through his wife Sarah Chapman, this being John Chapman my 10 x great grandfather born about 1550 in Lidlington Bedfordshire.

All these connections, and more, were personally researched during a week-long visit to the Bedfordshire Archives in 1996 -- but it took me about 4 years after that (on and off) to absorb the research and the data to piece it all together. It's easy to gather data from original parish records when your ancestors lived for generations in the same place, especially when you have bought copies of the transcripts to enable research to continue at home at a more leisurely pace.

Many thanks to everyone for the history lessons into the Ariel/Clark connections.

All the best.
