Hi,
The familly all popped up on Ancestrys BDM Index, there could be more, but that part was easy. I think a letter to the local papers might be the way to find out more about descendants of this family.

Hello, I was just doing a search and found this request. Eunice Hounsham was my grandmother. Passed away at 74yrs of age, her twin, Aunty Clary a few years latter. Did you find the information you wanted?
