Hi

Family stories say that an ancestor of mine 'Robinett' may have been interred at the camp. I personally think that they perhaps traded with the inmates. I would be grateful if you have any information at all.

PR's indicate the Robinet family have been in Yaxley from the early 1600's,do you have a given name?
