Thank you very much Steve - this was most helpful.

There is a direct line from Elizabeth to my wife.

I'm not sure what to do next though. Are there any resources available for purchase which might get me back even further?

any advice/info would be much appreciated.

Best Wishes
David

Hi David, Glad to be of help.
If they have done any crime you can check the court records and newspapers or if they were important or were rich or owned an acre of land or more they would be eligible to vote so there would be records of that, also if they sold or bought land there would be land and title deeds.
There are problay more records which i have forgotten so i would suggest you  post on the Census and Redcords board and ask on there.

Steve.
