Good morning everybody, the list has been so quiet that I thought I would check in case everybody has gone away. Is anybody left to receive any mail except me? Rod in Andover.

Never fear ..... Carole is here :o) Who are the families that you are searching for? Around the Kingsclere area I am looking for Richardson. In particular, Isaac Richardson born about 1800 or before. He's not in KC though, or Burghclere, where the 1851 census said he was born. I'll keep looking though.

The Society of Genealogists has published a list of apprentices to the Coachmakers and Coach Harness Makers' Company 1677-1800. See Volume 23 at http://www.sog.org.uk/acatalog/SoG_Bookshop_Online_London_Apprentices_357.ht ml (The URL does not fit on one line, so make sure you add the end part.) Some of the entries are searchable on-line at www.origins.net The site charges a fee, but SoG members are entitled to free access time every quarter. I found many useful references for my own research in the Coachmakers and Coach Harness Makers' Company list.
