Hi Julie, I haven't got my Family History files nearby, but I'm pretty certain my Tasmanian Nicholas line (early/mid 1800s) was involved in the Nant Distillery (I think 'Nant' was one of their connections in Monmouthshire). I can't recall details, because I haven't been able to do much on my family history recently. I'm just about to get active on it again. I'll check and let you know in the next couple of days. Regards, Helen PS Are you perhaps the lady I did some shorthand 'code breaking' for a few years ago? That was good for the grey cells.
