I have a barely legible letter stating that my EDGE family came from a small,place named SPOCH, near COLDVILLE in Leicestershire.. I suspect the spellings are incorrect, but does something like Spoch ring a bell with anyone? My gggrandfathjer, John Edge, was born 1814 or 1815, and entered Canada in 1832. He was identified as a farmer. I hope someone can help me.. Donald Edge in Cherry Hill, New Jersey USA

Well the Coldville should really be Coalville, but perhaps if you post on the Leicestershire list you may find someone who knows the other place. > I hope someone can help me.. > > Donald Edge in Cherry Hill, New Jersey USA -- Chris Ramsbottom researching: BARRATT, DANCER, FELLOWS, GOODES, ROBINSON, TUCKLEY, WHEWAY MAHER all in and around Birmingham/Smethwick, 1850 to present day
