Hi Di,
That looks good that Peter has found -
The picture I have is by John and JC Buckler and is in the Hertford County Record Office.
I have looked again at the larger photo I have, but can't read any of the signs - sorry.
It is supposed to be of High St c1830
Cheers
Keith

Hi Peter,
Yes, you are good! (Probably the best)
They are the children of my Ben and Mary (and that is the Thomas of Buntingford) BUT - Ben and Mary Married 1799 at St George in the East(can't find further info) - He seems to have appeared from nowhere - there are no birth records for him or his two brothers (Thomas and Joseph). Therein lies the challenge!
Swimming lessons progressing quickly (looks like I'll need them!!) Thank you Peter - you make family research worthwhile. Regards Di
