Hi Chris....got up early this morning, first thing I saw was your email! Four generations, I simply can't believe my luck! I will email you back later this afternoon on that, and the other corrections. I am so so excited. First though I must get caught up on the forum, reply to a few PMs, then I am off for a few hours but will be back later this afternoon.

I have gone through my stuff and can find nothing even remotely close to another James and Clara, so given the additional evidence such as Hastings/Wainfleet connection it has to be right.

Again Chris comes through with wonderful new information, you would put Sherlock Holmes to shame!

Hi Larry

Just received this private message from a new member - JOBAZ

Think it might be of interest to you

Hi Chris,

I have just been looking through the messages between yourself and Larry back in November.  My gt. grandparent's were Edward Chapman & Phoebe Foord. 

I have researched the Foord family and have a James Burt Foord, jeweller,  born 1859 at Hastings, the son of James Burt Foord and Clara Pickersgill.  Clara was born abt. 1829 at Mainfleet, Lincoln, and her husband James Burt Foord was born 13 April 1829, at Ninfield.  He was the the illigit son of Mary Foord, born 27 Jan 1811 at Ninfield.  Mary in turn was the daughter of Thomas Foord and Jane Vann and born at Ninfield on 27 Jan 1811.  She was the sister of my gt. grandmother, Phoebe Foord, also of Ruth - the Chapman dairy branch, and Barbara Foord wife of James Chapman.

Hope this is of help.


Happy New Year to you and yours Larry - hope it turns out to be very prosperous for you - Ancestor wise of course!
