Best holiday wishes to all of our friends and family history correspondents in Frozen Britain.  Our TV and news tell us of your travails with snowed-in Heathrow and Brit Rail, etc.  We're having record rainfall here, but it does not compare to your hardships.  We've enjoyed the wonderful exchange of messages and goodwill all year and look forward to keeping up the contact in 2011.    As always, searching for CHANCELLOR ancestors in Somerset and PURNELL around Mangotsfield.   Roland Purnell Ventura, California
