    1. [TOL] Reunion
    2. Pete & Gayle Young
    3. Hi Everyone, I just want to share a little bit of my excitement. We have arranged a Topuddle Martyrs Standfield Descendants Reunion this summer, in fact it's only two weeks away, in London Ontario, at Fanshawe Conservation Area, Watson Pavillion, Saturday July 12th. If anyone lives in the London area and would like to pop by for a visit, you are welcome. I have been busy making up name tags for everyone and getting my old photos copied and posted to show our lines of descent. We were expecting about eighty people, but it looks like we will have about 55, and some will be meeting for the first time. Being a genealogy buff, last summer my brother Gary from Montreal and I were in London doing research together and visiting (what else) cemeteries. We came across the grave of our grandfather's sister and noticed that it was well attended. I had a water bottle in the car that was near empty, so I chugged down the last bit and asked Gary for some paper. We planted a note in the bottle explaining who we were and asked for a contact by leaving our e-mail address enclosed. I then partially buried the water bottle with top exposed in between the flowers. Within one week we had a reply and another Standfield descendant contact. This lady and her married daughters and families all still live in London and will be attending the reunion. Fanshawe Conservation area is quite close to Siloam Cemetery where the George Loveless and Thomas Standfield are buried. I have the least distance to travel, being only 55 miles from London. Will let you know how it goes! Gayle Gayle

    3. When George arrived in London Ontario he settled on a farm two miles from the site of the first methodist church at Siloam,London.This church which he helped to build was burnt down being a wooden frame building ,it was rebuilt.He moved later to another farm and always resided in London. He was true to his princilpes and held bible classes.he preserved his love for flowers and his garden was a blaze of colour,regarded with good-natured envy by his immediate neighbours.James became caretaker of the methodist Church at Siloam wherehe remained until his death. One of Georges's daughters died on the passage as they were travelling the freezing seas of the North Atlantic. Lesley ----- Original Message ----- From: "P.F. & D.

    2. P.F. & D. Stewart
    3. Hello Gary (& anyone else interested) From reading various sources, it seems evident to me that the Martyrs were very active on the political front from the time they arrived at Newhouse Farm ,Nr. Ongar in Essex. George Loveless wrote a pamphlet entitled 'Victims of Whiggery'. I have never been able to obtain a complete copy of this (TUC claim not to have it) but if anyone does have a copy I would love to see it. However a quote from it reads......'Let every working man come forward, unite firmly but peacefully together as the heart of one man. Let them be determined to have a voice in and form part of the British nation. Then no longer would the interests of millions be sacrificed for the gains of a few......' The martyrs actively supported unions and strived for better conditions for farm workers. They were in contact with the London Dorchester Committee (who supported their families financially during their absence) and the Radicals and organised a Chartist Association which met frequently in Greensted (sometimes called Grinstead) which local farm labourers were encouraged to join.. Needless to say, they were not popular with local landowners or the local church. The vicar of Greensted objected to a group of convicts being brought to his parish and preached against their activities. The church still wanted to preserve the traditional order whereby everyone knew his place in society and was expected to accept his place within it without question. The vicar alerted the Home Office and once again the martyrs became 'marked men'. Even some of the once supportive newspapers attacked the government for having pardoned the men. Maybe this, together with the impending renewal date for the farm lease contributed to their decision to emigrate to Canada in 1844. Would be very interested to hear findings from anyone else on the subject.

    1. [TOL] Female Prayer
    2. eye
    3. Morning All I liked this prayer, for all us old married people I am sure we receive all this attention already;-)) Well I know Carol does:-)))) Irene FEMALE PRAYER Before I lay me down to sleep I pray for a man who's not a creep One who's handsome, smart & strong One who loves to listen long One who thinks before he speaks One who'll call, not wait for weeks. I pray he's gainfully employed, When I spend his cash won't be annoyed Pulls out my chair and opens my door, Massages my back and begs to do more. Oh! Send me a man who'll make love to my mind, Knows what to answer to "How big is my behind?" I pray that this man will love me no end - And never attempt to hit on my friend. Amen

She said, "Sarah Finkel in Room 302." "I will connect you with the nursing station." "3-A Nursing Station. How can I help you?" "I would like to know the condition of Sarah Finkel in Room 302." "Just a moment. Let me look at her records. Oh, yes. Mrs. Finkel is doing very well. In fact, she's had two full meals, her blood pressure is fine, her blood work just came back normal, she is going to be taken off the heart monitor in a couple of hours and if she continues this improvement, Dr. Cohen is going to send her home Tuesday at twelve o'clock." The woman said, "Thank God! That is wonderful! Oh! That is fantastic .. that's wonderful news!" The nurse said, "From your enthusiasm, I take it you must be a close family member or a very close friend!" "Not exactly. I'm Sarah Finkel in 302! Nobody here tells me ANYTHING!"
