which includes in George's grandson's newspaper obituary such snippets about George senior as

'..Mr George Liming was a well known figure in Crondall during the period of the Napleonic Wars. He kept a small school and acted as Parish Clerk and Surveyor. He was a man noted for his prodigious strength and was also 'champion stone thrower' of North Hants. It is on record that he could hang a hundredweight on his thumb and still write his name on the ceiling with the same hand, that he could throw a stone from Crondall church half way down Church street, a distance of 150 yds. and that he could place his toe against the base of Crondall church tower and jerk (not throw) a stone to the top of the tower, a height of 86 ft...

Hello Liming researcher.  I am researching the Liming name in the US for a friend whose mother was Pearl Liming b. in 1889 in Nebraska and married to Everett Leroy McGuire also b. in Nebraska.  I have traced this family back to John Lyming of Crondall, England and I am looking for anyone with more info on this family.  I am quite willing to share what I have from the US Liming family.  Lynn Schrag
