Hi Eye and all, Up top here we have drizzle all day every day, our drought is officially broken but sad to say everyone is very gloomy because of the grey skies and drizzle and we greet each other with "looks like more rain.....good isn't it.........grumble, mumble, grumble..." Very English!! Sorry about your weather Eye but hey, what can you expect in Victoria!! Welcome to Gary, I'm interested in this line - but from a distance since there are no clear links to my Thomas's (Dorset-1748) yet, but I will keep watching and listening. Good luck Gary hope something links you further back. Nothing to do with geneology but I just bought a car!! A 95 Saab, to replace the Saab i left behind in UK 11 years ago. Think I was more upset about leaving the car than the country.....oops. One funnee (very relevant to ancestry!) and I will leave you in peace to pore over the gene books...
