Dotty, Brilliant. Thank you for these. MIs can be so informative. I'm slowly but surely identifying more and more Sayers in Yorkshire and Durham and beginning to forge further links to the various branches. A couple of fellow researchers and I have been working for a while on the Sayers in Yorkshire as a whole and we have traced back a number of branches to the 1400s. We also have a considerable amount of information on the family to 1154AD though we are still working to confirm those links. So, if listers come across any references to any SAYER/SAYERS/SAER/SAIRE/SAIR in any of your researches into your own families for anytime up to the 1920s, do post them. Theyd be much appreciated. Thanks again Laurel Sayer Surrey -----Original Message----- From: Paul Verney [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday 12 January 2006 09:11 To: [email protected] Subject: SAYER MI's Hi Laurel, Her are the MI's from St Wilfred, Great Langton, N Yks.
