Hi Ron Thanks very much indeed for all this information. I do not have an Ancestry sub so cannot look at the information myself. One of the people you told me about, MSeely, is I think, my cousin, so I will contact him this week to see what he is up to, thanks for that. Not sure that I am able to contact the other name you gave, but if Mark Seely belongs to Ancestry, he could do that for both of us if he is willing, so again thanks for that lead. Your reference to Family Search is very timely, as I have been using this site over Christmas to follow another family name and was quite successful with that one. I will now go back and search for the LARDNERs again. Strange that a marriage is showing in two counties, although it may have been that they married in both Parishes, to satisfy both families. I must try to follow that lead as well. Altogether, Ron, you have been a wonderful help. Thanks very much. Regards and Happy New Year.
