My grandmother's family - Elizabeth TRETHEW(E)Y (bn c. 1835) and husband James HOOPER(perhaps a bit older) lived at MIDDLE HILL~ which I believe was a farm built for three lives - James~ his eldest son Thomas and not sure about the third - or maybe James was the second. Their offspring (daughters married into the RICKARD and JENKIN families~ amongst several others) and grandchildren were located in this area and the named St Stephens~ Nanpean~ Foxhole are very familiar. I would be interested in contact from anybody with connections to those names. Kind regards.

My great great grandfather Richard Allen emigrated from Sticker in 1840 to South Australia. His father (also Richard Allen )was a farmer in Sticker. I am seeking any information on the Allen family and their descendants who may be still living in Sticker or nearby towns. Also whether any other members of the family emigrated to Australia or the USA.

Hello! My name is Bill Burkitt and I live near Detroit~ Michigan in the U.S. My great-grandfather was born in White Cross in 1870. His name was Richard Williams and he was a blacksmith married to Elisabeth Ann Martin. They sent their youngest daughter (Beatrice Maude Williams) to live with relatives in Canada around 1910. Beatrice was my maternal grandmother.
