Carole, Many thanks for your reply to my query on the STAFFORD family. Just what was wanted, but I now have the problem that "my" Thomas STAFFORD (who married Hannah HATHAWAY) was *not* the son of Robert & Mary Ann THOMPSON)! Back to the drawing board ..... but just in case there is a connection can you tell me about the location of Petty France where Hannah HATHAWAY was born? Anywhere near Slimbridge?
