Cock and Rabbit

[craftymaggie]

  ::)I had no idea what I was starting!
Have learned a lot, but like the above members not what I wanted to learn
When I learned that the Inn gave its name to the field beside the school I had visions of
a refuge like encampment 
Maybe Im not wrong

Dathai
Thank you so much
You have inadvertently helped me solve another mystery
Philip Mooney must be the link between the Hughes, Waters and Harding families
Somone whose grandfather was a Mooney popped up as a genetic match to my husband  so at least I now have a trail to follow
Im eternally grateful to all of you for your help
Maggie
