Hi Sandy

Thanks for letting me know. Yes, our relationship is third cousin twice removed. His parents (Robert Craxford and Sarah Jacques) had moved the family out to rural Warwickshire during the 1890s following his brother John Craxford and Maria Smith who had moved out to the same area some 20 years earlier.

I'm keeping a memorial page on our website to commemorate our  extended family dead. So far totals 51 souls.

Kind regards

Alan
