Hi CaroleW

This is such a large family, I was hoping someone would pick up on the name and have some general info.  There does not appear to be many researchers looking into the 'Burrage' name.

This is very interesting, since I am also related to David and Frederick.
Frederick (1843-1926) was my great-great grandfather: his daughter (Ellen b.1870), my great grandmother. Also I happen to only live about 6 miles from the Boxmoor and Hemel areas mentioned. Do you know any more about David - e.g. his date and place of birth and his ancestory?
