Hi Mike This site may be able to help. Found by googling, always worth a try. :-)) http://www.britishballoonmuseum.org.uk/ Cheers Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Michael Hobbs" <mikehobbs@ezysurf.co.nz> To: <ISLE-OF-THANET@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, September 29, 2006 10:21 PM Subject: [ISLE-OF-THANET] The Widow Ann Wells > Several years ago I obtained a copy of a tourist pamphlet "Discovering Old Minster" printed by the Thanet District Council. On the acknowledgements portion of the pamphlet was a cartoon picture of a lady in a hot-air-balloon. Apparently that woman is the widow Anne Wells who staged hot-air-balloon ascents from her Tea Gardens during the 1820's (formerly the White Horse Inn on Church Street?). This woman was one of my ancestors and I have had a lot of difficulty finding out anything about her. > > Can anyone help with any information about her, her family, parents,siblings etc? > > Regards > > Mike Hobbs > Wellington > New Zealand > > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to ISLE-OF-THANET-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the quotes in the subject and the body of the message > >
