Under Construction

A place to post snippets of my family history, memories both first- and second-hand, and hints and tips for newer researchers.

Some of the surnames that I'll be posting about:
ANDREWS: How did a baker's daughter from Epsom, Surrey come to marry a banker's clerk from Nottingham?
BINDING: Originally from Somerset; stories of poverty and illegitimacy
BURRELL: Where it all started - who's in that photograph? 
CARNEY: Were they really once Kings of Ulster?
CATER: Can the link between my Gloucestershire family, and an earlier Bedfordshire landowner, be proved?
EMMETT: Would you Adam and Eve it?
MOSS: Not so humble as we once thought
THOMAS & DAVIES: Attempting to research the most common names in South Wales
THORN: Shoemakers and grocers from Norwich
