Muriel Alice Gray.I believe she was a domestic.****He moved to Canada between 1912 and 1916. ****I am trying to locate his birth information.**Thanks for any advise. They had a story to cover (no one knows what it is) so didn't leave a trail.**

I am researching the Painter family tree from Iwerne Courtney. During the 17 and 18 hundreds the Painter name was found in around 20% of families in Iwerne Courtney (Shroton). I would be very interested to hear of any Painter information or member of this Painter 'clan' which had many hundreds of Painters all from Iwerne Courtney.

• Hi Paul I am descended from Jesse's brother John (m Elizabeth Richards). My family tree is posted on Ancestry (if you have access to that) or the free version at www.mundia.com (if you search for William Charles Eaton b 1858 you should be able to find my "Dave M's Ancestry" tree; account is jo_morris). Please contact me via either of those websites! Best Wishes Dave Morris
