Hi Stan, Yeh, Bring it on!! My e.mail is (*) Its Jim here, Jim Preston, I lived most of my life in Winsford, in St Georges Rd. I recently had contact on Friends reunited with an Alan Fleet, he was at the grammar school and I was at the secondary school next door at the same time (1960's) I should think he is probably a closer relative. My younger brother Ray was best mates with another Alan Fleet from Dene cottages, he wrote a book which was published called "wooleybacks" dont know if you have heard of it, it is a story of characters from winsford in his life and features my brother and my dad also (he used pseudenyms.....god how do you spell that word??) I have traced back to Ralph Fleet b 1785 in Tiverton. My Prestons go back to 1602 in Warmingham and I discovered that I have Prestons on my Maternal and Paternal sides who were related and in fact my mum, whose gran was Vron Preston was fourth cousin to my dad whose gran was Martha Fleet....complicated!!! confused !!!! I was. regards Jim
