Well Alan congratulations are in order for a truely well organised first gathering . Many thanks to Michele are also due for the reception and help in the refreshments and every body else who helped . The whole event was superb , from attendance , to displays , Presentations and the sharing of every bodies experiences . Roll on Kettering !!! >From my personal point of view , the event really brought home the geographical closeness of all these knibbs families , particularly in the Northaptonshire region . Secondly as you say Alan , the discussions with Harold did bring some nice surprises , with his experiences at Cadburys , and his meeting with my wifes Grand father who also worked at Cadburys . We hope to compare notes along with Alex to see if there are any other connections . Putting faces to names has put the web site into a new dimension and closeness and hopefully this will benefit research in all knibbs regions. Lastly i notice that several researchers are on aol . What about setting up a chat room meeting perhaps every quarter so as to share the latest progress on a more personal level . See what you think.

The coding takes a while to put together but I hope to complete some if not all by end of play tomorrow. I gather there WAS a ritual toe exposure ceremony in the other room so must correct the record. Also forgot to mention Alan Davis and Lesley MORGAN both have Hethe connections and that I learned this was pronounced Heath and that Pytchley is Pietchley as in apple pie. What else have I missed. Sorry still no question or exclamation marks. I will follow up other issues that arose idc. Karen the stills have yet to be posted as stated but the slideshow should be working with larger pics available from there. bfn Alan ============================== Visit Ancestry.com for a FREE 14-Day Trial and enjoy access to the #1 Source for Family History Online.
