Yes there are a lot of Johns and Williams. You should try keeping a full register of names from 1505 up to date, they are too numerous to count in Warwickshire, and that is only half the story as I have Leicestershire to do next.

Oh I say how frightfully posh! I always thought I was... You may have seen on my Elkington tree, that my mother had to give birth to a stillborn baby boy, in 1950. In those days babies who were born already dead, werent even acknowledged as having existed at all, an issue which I think poor mum never really got over. So I have included him on our trees, as I believe, through my Faith, that even though he did not draw breath in this world, he of course existed, and still does indeed, forever in the next world, and I will meet him one day. Dad told me that his firstborn boy would always have been.... William!! Hope no one finds this bizarre or upsets anyone, its just my way of paying my respects to my Big Brother.
