Hello from the US! I have recently discovered that my great great grandfather was Charles Perry from Harpenden~ Hertfordshire. He moved to the US and then to South Carolina. I show his parents were Benjamin and Ann Perry. We've been looking for this information for decades and are thrilled to find out what we have. If anyone has additional information on the Perry's from this area~ I really would appreciate it. Please feel free to email me.

A distant relative Joseph Philpott b 1787/9 was born in Sundon- Streatley~ he married a Jane Clark b 1792 who came from Ickleford. Joseph's father was John Philpott who I presume also lived-Born? in Streatley. John married a Sarah Perry in St Albans in May 1784. Does anyone have any information they could share with me as I now appear to be at a dead end.**Regards Martin Philpott

I am trying trace information about Bodsworth family - they lived in Lilley Village from 1700s - some moved to Stopsley and High Town (became Bodsworth Greengrocers) and opened in Luton Market in 1928. Have looked on Ancestry.com and it appears that they were quite a large family in Lilley - have tried to find where buried in Lilley but with no success. Would appreciate any help.

I had a relative~ William Dudmesh~ who was saddlemaker to the Queen~ and lived in Harpenden~ Hertfordshire in the 1860's~ maybe even earlier than that~ and on. He had two children~ Ada and Walter~ both born in Harpenden. William Dudmesh was born in Alfriston~ Sussex in 1843.**Has anyone heard of this last name before~ or know anything about his saddle making business?
