Janet, I took a look on the LDS site and found a THOMAS PEGRAM christened 27 MAY 1838 Great Hormead, Hertford, England Parents are listed as Jas & Anna. On a side note: I'm also tracing the PEGRAM /PAGGRAM / PIGRAM family. My 3X great grandmother is Sophia Pegram, christened 13 May, 1798 in Layston, Hertfordshire; she is the daughter of Thomas Pegram & Sarah Willson. Sophia Pegram married William North. -------------- Original message -------------- > Hi Paula! > Wow, this could be my family! > Does the page you saw say anything else, such as dad's age or occupation, or > any siblings?

Hello tesmith40! Yes this is my family, I found the same entry, too. I wasn't sure at first that they were mine, but am now. You are quite a bit further back than me in tracing the Pegrams, congratulations! I know how much work that is. You never know,but our trees might connect up at some point. All the best in your research!
