Camels?
« on: Saturday 31 October 09 23:26 UTC (UK) » |

Does anyone know what Camels refers to? Sounds like it could be a place but sounds silly!
If it is a place does anyone know where it is?

Hello to you, Having heard my Mother speak of the name Blamey .. it seems almost too obvious that the connection is Camelford (or surrounds) in North Cornwall..where my mother originated from. Perhaps you are already aware of this ..(as I have only now joined Genes Reunited.! Happy hunting anyway,
With best wishes
Margaret Grace

I wasnt aware of this. Thank you for that. Maybe you could send me a PM and I will open my tree for you if you have Blamey contacts.
David.

Thanks for that. Will be taking a trip to Cornwall (Veryan and district in particular) early next year so will get my bearings!
Thanks for your help!
