Helping us helping you continued...... The Wessex list covers 9 counties - if you know which county your query involves - please tell us! Some of us are less than knowledgeable when it comes to hamlets and villages outside our own locality, but as many of us are also researching our own families in distant counties within the area we may have just collected the bit of information that can help you eg I and my wife have rellies in 7 of the 9 counties! And if you don't know please ask! I know we all try, but for the absent minded or forgetful ones amongst us (which includes me) if sks* has taken the time to reply at least hit the reply button and say "Thanks" there and then - thats all it takes: even if you have got the info already :-)) And if you've got this far thanks for reading! Happy hunting Regards Paul Portland *sks = some kind soul
