Hello,

My great grandfather was Samuel Joseph Youngs Brock. My parents were first cousins: Mary Payne do Thomas Edward Payne and Elsie Kate Brock and Peter Hall so Thomas Watson Hall and Edith Olive Brock.

I knew many of his 12 children as great aunts and uncles during my childhood, I was born and brought up in Ipswich, Suffolk and can remember the big family Christmases when there would be 24 of us around the tables.

My family tree: Hall Family Tree is on ancestry.co.uk if you would send me your email address I can send you and invitation.

I started researching the family after the death of my parents in April 2006 and with the help of my brother in law we have traced the Brock's back to 1066. They came over with William the Conqueror and as they were Sir's there were quite a few records. I also spent several days taking photo's of gravestones in and around Alburgh, Norfolk.

My great grandparents died in Ipswich in 1937 about 6 weeks apart.

It would be lovely to hear from you, I know that some of my great grandfathers sisters married and ended up in London and some of his sons too, they are the ones that I never met as a child.

Regards

Catherine M L Jones nee Hall
