Hello all, I have been somewhat reluctant to post messages as my research is still in the relatively recent past, I'm hoping to get to Odard one day so I'm keeping the info for future reference! My grandmother Edith Dutton b 1876 Warmingham Ches, one of 14 children parents Walter Dutton & Charlotte Taylor flour miller " William b 1805 Bunbury m Jane ( I still haven't found her name) he also was a miller. His parents John Dutton and Mary Stockton m 23.7.1789 Bunbury. I've been given enormous help by members of Cheshire FHS and the CHESHIRE list in beefing out these bare facts. I find it so easy to go off at a tangent, finding out about social conditions and why people moved from one place to another that I probably won't follow the line back to the C15th let alone William the 'Conk'. I do know that my grandfather and his sons travelled to America for machine parts for their flour mill which surprised me. Enough of my ramblings, I look forward to reading about my more adventurous forbears in what is an enjoyable list. cheers Steph from a cold and sunny Greenwich uk
