Hi Rosie99
 That’s fits well with the rest of the information.
  Is Mary’s middle name Major? Or is it part of her surname? This is very helpful thank you !
  I might be back again if I get stuck .  :)

Thank you for both your swift reply. Using the census I was able to go back as far as 1841 to William Down who was aged 7. He grew up to become a rope maker at HM Dock.  I havnt been able to go any further with him at the moment .  Any help would be fantastic . Thank you , Caroline .

Does any one know any information about the Huguenot surnames from Plymouth  , I’m trying to trace my family ancestry in the surname of Down . But I can’t easy find much info , I know our surname was changed but I’m not sure which way to go. My father mentioned the surname de D’aud , de Doud, or de Daudé when I was small  . If some one could shed some light I’d be very pleased. Thank you .
