Hello Jennie, Many thanks for email and extra data. We do have a FHS but it is some distance away from where we live, I may leave some things for my children to check later, as I am getting a bit old now to do too much racing around, I shall be 72 in June. I do appreciate what you have done. I am just hoping there may be someone out there who is a descendant of the same family that may be interested in making a connection.Thanks again. Kindest regards, Derek Hindle in Tasmania. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jennie Hudson" <whitewav@powerup.com.au> To: <ENG-CAMBRIDGESHIRE-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, May 08, 2004 7:13 AM Subject: Re: [ENG-CAMB] WILLIAM CHAMBERLAIN m ANN MEADOWS at Thorny, Cambridgeshire. c.1807 Any connections? > Hi Derek, > > I don't have a connection to the Chamberlain family but I do have ancestors > who came from Lincolnshire, hence having some records for that county. > > The BVRI cd like the IGI has been transcribed by volunteers etc. so there > could be mistakes in reading some of the names.
