Hello I noticed the thread re Daniel Death, and it prompted me to say that my 7th Great Grandmother was Elizabeth Death born 23rd Feb 1722 in Kettlebaston, married to John Cutting. So I am interested to know if anyone is following this line also. I wonder if there is a connection to Daniel Death? I have a William Death born in 1661 Thorpe Moreiux in my tree also, he was my 9th Great Grand Uncle.
