Thank you Valda,  we always thought that son John - not on this entry may not have been as old as claimed.  Had older sisters thou.   Beats me why so many changed their occupation after migrating.    It really does.   Another question if I may, planning the big visit in Sept, what is the address of the genealogical society in Bedfordshire or Leighton-buzzard?   Is there a central webpage that may list them country wide as I have a few places I want to go?

Hi Abygail,

I was just reading your post and was hoping that you could share with me the information you have about Josiah Webb and Esther Whitney as i have just discovered that they are my g g g grandparents. 

I am related through their daughter Helena (or Ellina) as she married David O'Neil and had 12 children one was named Dora who married Angus Kennedy, they had two children and the youngest is my grandfather Keith.

Until only a few days ago we never knew anything of this side of the family so i am really interested in hearing anything.

Hello fire,
Firstly, welcome to the family.  I'd be quiet happy to share what I have on our common ancestors, I will send you a PM with my personnel email address so we can communicate directly.
I wish I had heaps of photos to share but unfortunately what I have starts with John Webb's daughter, Esther, who was my great grandmother.  as far as wish lists go I would love photos of all ancestors but I'm not that lucky.
Regards Abygail

Hello Abygail

I think there is info re WEBB in Leighton Buzzard - particular Josiah's ''indenture'' ["indenture"? Isn't that an ''apprentiship''?]
in local Archives?

You can access the records by searching for "blars adlib" - that should turn-up Beds Archives and then have a good look
