Hi Deirdra, I have Pickering family from Yorkshire. Joseph Pickering, b. abt 1790, had a son Robert W. Pickering who immigrated to New York in 1850. Robert worked as a young boy in Leckonfield. Do you know anything about this family? --Carl Sheperd On 11/24/07 2:04 AM, "eng-east-yorks-request@rootsweb.com" <eng-east-yorks-request@rootsweb.com> wrote: > > > Today's Topics: > > 1.
