I am very much a newcomer to this List so I am treading very hesitantly -
BUT - I am puzzled by the comment that Peg is asking an unanswerable
question as suggested by cemoor -

It looks to me as if Peg is asking a *very* reasonable question - i.e.
Does anyone out there have any knowledge of anyone named
KILLINGLY/KILLINGLEY in the Middlesex area of London ?

I note she carefully uses upper case in the text and she limits her
"Subject" box to the Surname(s) involved - also in upper case, both of which
I understand is the proper procedure.

It seems axiomatic to me that - if *you* haven't come across any reference
to this surname, then please ignore the question and please don't bother
yourself with it any further.

I am therefore at a loss to understand any necessity for a mass negative
response = Or am I missing something ?
Regards
Geoff
