Hello Bernice, Thank you for the information - the details of the wills are especially interesting - probably these can be obtained in photocopy form so I'll make some enquiries about that. It's quite a journey (by British standards) from East Anglia to Bristol! I didn't know there were peripatetic brushmakers; they would be like pedlars and tinkers - all very interesting. Thank you again for your help. Regards, Roland -----Original Message----- From: bristol_and_somerset-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:bristol_and_somerset-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of Bernpeg@aol.com Sent: 29 October 2010 22:36 To: bristol_and_somerset@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: [B&S] KITCHEN, DUFFETT and FOWLER Hi Roland I don't know if these Duffetts ... snip, snip
