Got connected! Cyril is my 5th cousin five times removed. So I guess you are a cousin too!

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Hi, yes very well thanks and I've managed to fill many gaps in my Pocklington line.

I've actually been in touch with the current proprietor of The bakery Chris Pocklington too.

I'm a bit late on this one but I wonder if  a branch of your Pocklington family were  involved with Heckington mill? http://www.heckingtonwindmill.org.uk/the-mills-history.html

Hi Ian,

Yes the Heckington Mill does pop up in our line there somewhere - cant quite recall who exactly off the top of my head but it does ring a bell definitely.

cheers
Richard

Hi Richard,
Let me know if you need more on the Heckington Pocklingtons and I'll see what I can do.
Cheers, Ian.

We are related to John Pocklington who is of Heckington Windmill. John is my 5th cousin 5 times remoned.

Incidentally, the mill didnt have eight sails until he took some of Skirbeck mill.

Bit off topic I know but the Pocklingtons took over the mill from my Nash Ancestors ( Sleightholme Nash was my 4XGreatgrandfather who did the mill no good I fear )
