I have only one Bradfield at the moment who I found on the Som & Dors FHS 1891 cenusus CD (this and the 1851 are highly reccomended if you have Dorset interests) John Bradfield born ca 1857, Kingsclere. A Miller at East Stoke, Dorset with wife Alice W ? and servant Emily RAMPTON 17 also born Kingsclere. I don't have any Chance at the moment. I haven't recorded many names into the 20th century in any case - too busy trying to sort out the 16th & 17th century ones!!! -- John Lewis <jayell@ntlworld.com> from Bournemouth, Dorset, UK using GNU/Linux and Geneweb genealogy software Main Family Names in HAM are: Kingsclere area: BUTLER, COOPER, FISHER, FOSTER, GIRDLER, HAWKINS Hazeley Heath: BARKER, CHANDLER, LEWINGTON, NEVILL(E) Main Family Names in GLA are: Vale of Glamorgan: GRIFFITH Rumney: LEWIS Aberdare: HOPKINS & JENKINS and CMN: HOPKINS & DAVIES
