Hi Jo, You don't have a Simeon Russell at Kirbymoorside do you? I have found a baptism with his name on on the IGI and wonder if he ties up with my Russells of Northallerton who had one or two Simeons amongst them. My Russell go back to 1670ish in Hawnby NRY and gradually they moved until the ended up in Northallerton High Street. There is a Simeon in Northallerton trade directories who worked with plumbing and such, does that mean anything to you? Regards Jenny DeAngelis. Spain.
