Ruth - that is absolutely outstanding - thank you so much! I shall spend the evening working my way through that lot. I have a photograph of Mary Ann, taken in the 1930s: http://www.flickr.com/photos/norfolkodyssey/3798285314/ Mary Ann went to work as a serving girl in Duxford and met Robert Reynolds, a stockman at Duxford Grange Farm. They married in 1864, and their son Thomas, my great-grandfather, is pictured in this photograph: http://www.flickr.com/photos/norfolkodyssey/4280886621/ Simon Ruth Selman wrote: > Hi Simon > > I've found the following parish register transcript entries in the CFHS > CD-ROMs which appear to relate to your direct line.
