Dear Anne, Many thanks for your message, and taking the time to let me know "how the land lies there", it is so much easier to try to figure out where your ancestors might have been, if you know about the parishes. It gives a better perspective on things then. Many thanks for this info. Regards and Best Wishes, Mavis. ----- Original Message ----- From: <AS11648@aol.com> To: <ENG-GLO-HAWKESBURY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, June 09, 2000 10:49 AM Subject: [[Hawks]] Re: [[Hawks]] RE: [[Hawks]] Re: [[Hawks]] RE: [[Hawks]] Re: [[Hawks]] Reposti... > I just thought I would mention that Hawkesbury is VERY close to the border > with Wiltshire.
