COLIN's back! Yeaaaaaaaaa!
And now we have a BARON!!
Think I've died and gone to heaven! ;-))))))))

I remember last year about this time.....we had all those gorgeous pictures
from Colin and "the CHART!" What wonderful excitement!

What terrific new "stuff" might this Baron come up with!
Guess he's not on the internet or he would have tripped over us a long time
ago.

Tantalizing, indeed.

Hello all,

Yesterday, someone left this tantalizing message in my guestbook on my
home page. So, I asked Doug what he thought about it as he has been to
England before and perhaps would know if this were legitimate. Sometime
later, I thought, ask Colin, too--he lives there. He ought to know!

After a long absence from our LIST (for personal reasons), I was
surprised that Colin responded. His investigative work is reported
below.

<<<Dear Doug,
What do you make of this message left in my guestbook on my home page?
Does this seem like a legitimate address to you? Is this a hoax? Or is
this for real? Is there a Baron Sherborne?

<<<Hi Carole,

As you have probably noticed I have been missing from any communications
for
quite some time, there have been several reasons, the two foremost being
that

a) (snip)
b) I ...could not get my e-mail to work, after a few months of
messing around
I finally conceded and had to buy a new and faster modem and am now up
and
running, the trouble is that I now have 1400 e-mails to wade through!!

Anyway, that's not what you wanted to hear. Thanks for the interesting
e-mail, I followed it up by looking on various internet search sites but
could find no reference to the address or telephone number under the
surname
of Dutton. The Sherborne branch of the family are refered to in the
'Duttons of Dutton', this you already knew. So, I telephoned the number
and
chatted to a lady for some five or ten minutes and she confirmed that
the
message was quite correct and that her son (who was at work) has been
trying
to contact any Duttons. He is in fact a Dutton heir albeit but is
called
Byron Hadleigh and he has got a wealth of information, books,
photographs
etc, which he gained from his Grandmother (who is in her 90's). I will
call
him later and e-mail you with the results.

Regards to you

Colin

p.s. you can flash this out on the rootsweb if you like.>>>

Hmmmm. Now, I wonder what we might learn from Byron Hadleigh!!??
