Anne,
I can`t believe how much info. you have been able to give me. It`s taken me ages to get where I am with my own tree. The awful thing is, my husband hasn`t been very interested in his own family history, and it`s all there on a plate for him!!!! Typical !  It`s my elder ( teenage ) daughter who is very keen to know, so this will be an excellent surprise when she gets back from holiday.
Many thanks,
Mel

Wow Anne, you are an absolute star!
What , if any , is your connection?
Do you mind if I use your info. to build my husbands tree?

Wow thank you, that`s brilliant!
I`m off to work now, I`ll try and get back on later ( it`s so horribly addictive, this family history lark!!)

Hi there,
Well, so far I have Alice James nee Hollinshead, born Tunstall. Her father was Moses Hollinshead who married Eliza Fradley. I have them on a couple of census.
I have only just started researching them, Alice is my husband`s maternal G.G/mother.
So, I`m interested in just about anything at the moment!!

Just started researching my husband`s tree.
The names James and Hollinshead have come up, from Staffs.
I can`t access the wix site another poster has mentioned, but I have noticed these names are mentioned by a couple of others. Any connections greatly received !! Any assistance gladly given!
Thanks.
