I think it is fascinating too Merry how our ancestors lives collide years before .. my ancestors, my nephew's new wife, Liza's OH and OC's Holdens etc all came from Saddleworth 150 years ago.
Just recently we found a photo of my bil's greatgrandfather William Osborne who came from Merriott in Somerset. My sister and I both thought, as soon as we saw it, that it looked like our grandfather, Oliver Sloman whose ancestors came from Tiverton in Somerset .. gave us goosebumps .. Julie
