Having had chance to digest John STINCHCOMBEs information which he has so kindly shared with us and having had the opportunity of speaking to him again it is becoming extremely clear that even more listers are related to each other through this particular family. Johns Grandparents were both related to Elizabeth MINETT nee THOMPSON. Elizabeth was christened at Tetbury but is in one of the family graves with her father David and various other family members. May I take this opportunity of thanking John for sharing with us the fruits of his many years of research which have been borne by the use of traditional research methods - that is without the computer. It looks as though we are now building a clearer picture of the Hawkesbury STINCHCOMBEs and their impact on the village. i am sure more links and relationships will come to light when Johns mail has sunk in. Good luck Geoffro The Pond Dipper
