Hi Naomi,

I think we can safely say any Featherstones at all <g> Oh, and don't forget
to look for the variant

FE(A)VERSTONE

I don't know whether you've been warned, but because of the local Kentish
dialect, the "th" often gets pronounced "v" and we have found no end of
FEVERSTONE variants!

Paul was going to put our findings in the new Fellowship news, but it got
deferred until next time because of something else!

Every blessing,
Christine

Hi all,
I forgot - I am on the wide film reader on Wednesday and will be looking at
the 1871 census for Speldhurst.

Will be looking for all Featherstones,
Jean's Phillip and Henry born Bromley,
Elizabeth Steed and/or Elizabeth Startup and families,
Jane Watkins, father Thomas and their family
Any other name for anyone?

The 1861 census will have to wait for the following Wednesday I fear.

All my films came at once with the reopening of the FHC after the January
holidays. I also have two parish registers from near Rannoch Moor in
Perthshire. Am going to be a busy girl! Might even have to pay a Saturday
visit.

Naomi
