Hi,
I've set up a website about the hamlet of Kingweston.  Within the website, is a history of the hamlet. Also included are some photos from 1920's onwards, including some from the late 1930's of all the villagers with names.  The 1841, 1851, 1861, 1871, 1881, 1891 and 1901 census returns can also be found on the website.  Also, people living in Kingweston from 1910 until 1950. There is also a page for people to leave messages about family connections, etc.  I thought it would be useful to set up this website for people whose family had connections with Kingweston. :)
