Hi Frances - You may remember Eric Gelling helping me a few years back - William Kewley illg son of Lucy Craine and Edward Kewley, Lucy married John Quay - but we are now interested in finding more on Edward, not an easy task for a novice like myself - I reckon he was born abt 1799 because Lucy was and that is as much as I have!  I had thought it was Lucy who worked at Harold Towers but according to my relative it was her Father Robert who I think passed away in 1826..

Unfortunately or fortunately depending on how you view things (!)  I have been busy working and so have picked up the thread again after a long break.

Any pointers greatly appreciated - JOHNNIE -

Thank you Frances for your informative reply.  The info on Harold Towers was passed on to me from a distant relative, now with your reply I can see how wrong we are!  Our ancestor in question apparently passed away in 1826......  (It's always worth checking the facts)

Thanks again, it made very interesting reading and maybe we are on the right track just the wrong generation.
