hello Alan

I've just stumbled across a Mary Ann Neame on my wife's tree, born in Petham (close to Lower Hadres) in 1866. 

Perhaps of some interest?

As far as I know I do not have that name in my tree nor do I have anyone from Petham. Thanks for checking by anyway :)

I think you will find this is a variation of NUTTING which is a common name in the Chislet area.  I have connections with this name in Dover and other areas.

That interesting to hear, I will look into this over the weekend and see what I can find. Many thanks for this Bill, you might have just given me another avenue to investigate :)

I take it you've found www.neamefamily.com - my Mary Ann from Petham  is listed and according to the research on there, I get seamlessly back to the 1400s  :) easily beating my previous earliest anywhere in my research  by a good 350 years! Interesting site.

I hadn't actually seen your site Old Blue but will take a look at it later to see if you can see any connections but as I said earlier the chances of me finding something are slim at best.

Thanks for that link Old Blue, I had completely forgotten that I have a Neame in my family, and am in the middle of going through the website.

many many thanks for the link :)
