Thank you for your reply. I couldn't remember the name of the place when I asked/posted the question. Since I am in Florida, USA I don't get much info regarding Middlesex, in areas where my family lived, or who to ask for answers. Now wondering if I can get a list of names in Middlesex from phone book to write to see if any relationship, hoping someone of the 11 children had by my great grandparents cousin, have some family info remembered .
