Am I a little bit excited!
Booked a holiday 'up North' in Durham area, as we are planning on moving to the North in the next couple of years (I was brought up in Whitby, Nth Yorkshire) so am considering it a move 'home' albeit a bit further North! This trip will be a recce of the area to see where we want to settle. We're going to be staying not far from Stanhope.
Was investigating local interests and looking at a map. Spotted that Wolsingham wasn't far from where we were staying and thought 'that place name is familiar'. Checked FH program and was reminded that my McIntosh's were from there! So now some family history is also on the agenda, checking out the church, etc for graves.
Have got not further with my research re McIntosh's as I've been looking at other family. But now am checking and making a list ready for the trip!
Excited
Anyone related living locally I would love a chance to meet up! (July/August - 2 weeks)
A reminder I am descended from: John McIntosh and Ann's son William M McIntosh and his second wife Rachael (nee Brown) - my 4 x Gt Grandparents.
Cheers
Sue
