Glad to have helped to get rid of the "bigamist"  :)

Hi Again Gang & thanks once again for helping me get rid of my suspected bigamist :).

I'm on holiday at the moment & don't have all my records with me but feel sure that when I get home & have a look at all my records then I shall find both Ernest George's & when you mentioned it the penny dropped as I know that I have an Edith Beard on my tree so feel sure I will have details of her children as well.

I'm a direct descendant of William Heeks (the one that was a sawyer) & have so spent nearly 20 years researching the Heeks line but like every other Heeks researcher I cant find the baptism or burial for the head of the tree (Thomas Heeks) & have lost count of all the parishes that Ive searched for the elusive sod :).

All the very best

Phil

ps I should have remembered to bring my full set of parish register records with me but forgot to pack them like an idiot - put it down to my age :)
