Hack, I too have very boring ancestors.

Mostly agricultural labourers or railway workers, all from Montgomeryshire.  All married, then produced more agricultural labourers.................!!!!!!

Even more boring are the surnames - Jones - tons of 'em!!!!, Mills - tons of them too!, Lewis - what a headache!.  Probably the most interesting surnames are Challinor, Beaton and Crisp!!!!!!!!

That's about it!! Boring eh???

I've just been having another look at one of mine - [/i]I know[i] he was a serial adulterer, had 11 children with one particular lady although he never married her - even left a cottage and some land to another of his baseborn sons, but what does he give as his occupation on the census ??...

Ag Lab  Huh - blowed if I know how he found the time or the energy to go to work !  lol
