Very happy to share - I got the earlier information from the Maris Ancestry site at http://www.marisancestry.co.uk/Royal/index.htm

The attached file gives my personal descent from where it diverges from the Maris line.

I seem to have been having difficulty sending this reply - can you please confirm that you've received it?

Gosh - talk about everything comes to she who waits!  This is the first response I've had to my query, but I did manage to establish the connection by other means, including making connection with an eighth cousin, and tapping into someone else's research which takes me back to Edward I.   :)

Thank you very much for taking the trouble to respond - it was much appreciated.

Cambridgeshire / Tunwell plus Kimpton/Chandler

Can anyone help me find out why my uncle's middle name was Tunwell?  So far my best guess is that it came into the family with the marriage of Thomas Kimpton and Sarah Kirby Chandler in Cambridge in 1851.  Both were born in Cambridge c.1823.

According to the family bible he was 71 at his death in August 1925 which makes it 1854, but I don't have an exact date.

My great-grandfather, William Henry Wood, was a baker born in Westminster, close to Horseferry Road.  According to his marriage certificate in 1879, his father was also William Henry Wood, also a baker.  I have a possible sighting of the family on the 1871 census but nothing conclusive earlier.  (There is a Willliam Wood in the right place on the 1851 census, but no occupation is listed.)  Frankly I am running out of clues and places to follow them up - can anyone make any suggestions?
