Hello Everyone: Earlier last night, I asked if we could start developing a Place Names list, mostly for England. BARBARA WRIGHT has completed all but 19 items from the extensive list that I created - from obituaries, marriages and births, mostly Griersons. Below are the 186 items which she has fully developed, and there still remaining 19 items which are listed with an ASTERICK......please take a close look at them and see if you can say where these items belong to, ENGLAND, IRELAND, WALES or SCOTLAND? The numbers to look at are: 14, 25, 29, 38, 49, 55, 61, 76, 78, 90, 95, 100, 114, 120, 133, 134, 136, 155 and lastly, 166. This list can be used by all of us once completed to better, and more fully understand the geography of the U.K., not only for Americans, but for Britains as well, and anyone not born there.

Further comments re place names:- DRUMELZIER is in the south-east of Scotland and is just south of a line between Biggar and Peebles. WALTON-LE-DALE is south-east of Preston. ABBOTSFORD - In Dumfries the following buildings are very near to each other - Beaconsfield Cottage, Salisbury Cottage and Abbotsford Cottages. (The latter is a group of houses rather than one house.) I understood that they had been named after places in the south of England. Beaconsfield is now in Buckinghamshire and Salisbury is in Wiltshire so it is believable that Abbotsford could well be (or have been) in Surrey. Eunice Smith Edinburgh, Scotland
