Hi Georgette,
I'm new to the Forum. I found your entry on Michael Wilkinson thro a Google search. I have been researching William's father, Michael, also a missionary with the Christian Missionary Society. Michael is the son of John and the brother of my GGG-Grand father - James. The line runs John, thro' Michael's brother James to John Church (1), John Church (2) Alexander, Herbert, Victor to me. John and John Church (1) were from Ipswich, James and JC (2) were Sandwich in Kent and Alexander and Herbert were Walthamstow in London. Can you explain your interest please. Regards Steve

Hi Helen,
I think I have sent you several PMs following up on our previous messages. Given that you haven't responded I must have been doing something wrong.
Did you receive my offer of a photo of William's headstone etc?
Regards,
Steve
