Thanks Bob. David Richard Westall (1882) was my 4th cousin twice removed. Hannah (Deadmarsh) Westall was originally born Hannah Russ (1842). She married Charles Deadmarsh in 1867 in Hungerford, and then remarried Thomas Westall in 1873 in Hungerford (RD). -------------------------------------------------- From: "Bob Westall" <bobatbmw@cox.net> Sent: Wednesday, September 17, 2008 2:25 AM To: <WESTALL-L@rootsweb.com> Subject: [WESTALL] David Richard Westall b 1882 > One more time, > > > > David Richard Westall born in the first quarter of 1882 in Lambourn, > Berkshire, Eng.
