• I have a needlework sampler done by Loiusa Lamb, at the Hindon School, in 1869. She was a sister of Albin lamb. Can you suggest how this made its way to Canada?

I am researching a GURD One-Name Study and have a large Gurd family database. We have connections to many other families whose roots are in the Donhead area. I would be happy to share information with other researchers.

• I've just started researching the Gurd family. Henry John Gurd, b. 1861, was my great-grandfather. I'd be very grateful for any relevant information you have and happy to share the little I have.

My grandfather~ Harry John Score~ was born in Donhead St. Andrew in 1892. His father~ John Score~ migrated to the U.S. with the family that same year. We discovered the Score family lived in that area for generations as far back as the 1700's. I would like to find out if any of that family remains there.
