Hello Di My apologies to other listers. I tried to send this message privately but must have mucked up on Di's address. I was looking through your high country site and found a Steve WRIGHT who is researching the name "Sims". Could you please ask him to contact me if he is interested in exchanging information if our lines are the same. My line is through my mother, going back to Richard SIMS b abt 1828 in England. Thank you Irene Rees
