I also remeber an Aunt Nell, Aunt May surname may have been Carpenter and Uncle Ron Randall. any help would be appreciated. thank you.

I'm looking for information about the HICKMAN family who lived in Funtington and/or West Ashling in the early 1800's. They appear on the 1841 census but I cannot progress further back from there. Any information welcome.
Thanks

I am looking for information about the BAXENDALE family. My grandmother talked about a 'Miss Baxendale' in Stoughton and was sent a Red Cross parcel from Herbert Baxendale of Canton Massachusetts in 1947 (I have the Customs Declaration). I would be interested to know any details about the family.
