Hi to the list again--I repeat that all the material I am putting on is
fromMyrtis,s work of long ago.I have not tried to check it out for accuracy it
is just to be maybe a link to someone and they can check it out or correct it
online so I can make my data correct.I started out doing this about the first
of this year or maybe a little earlier.We were second cousins but she was a
good bit older than I and back in those days I wasnt interested in family
history,now I wish I had been and would have talked to
Aunts and Uncles and grandparents and knew a lot more first hand.

England such as-the counties of Glouster-Somerset-Devon-Dorsett-Witshire and
Hampshire.she stated that the families of Giles,Marshall and Crocker families
seem to be more numerous in the west counties than any other area of England
after that around London and surroundings.
