HI list, Can anyone tell me why two of MOORLEY's were named Harry Orme MOORLEY. I am aware of the Orme boys school but why should anyone want to be named after a school? Unless once upon a time there was a Mrs ORME somewhere. Mike Hill Waterlooville A modern village.

Hi Mike, I had two teachers named Orme,they happened to be married so the name would come from the same family.I went to school in Stoke-on-Trent so maybe the family lived around there in your time. I hope this helps, Helen. ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Saturday, August 30, 2003 1:50 PM Subject: [Pots] MOORLEY > HI list, > Can anyone tell me why two of MOORLEY's were named Harry Orme MOORLEY. > I am aware of the Orme boys school but why should anyone want to be named > after a school?
