    Thanks for sharing Joan,
    I have just spent ages looking at Cheshire and I'm really surprised at how close to each other all of my Cheshire rellis lived from both sides of my tree. Ive never really bothered before.
    You find some great sites so thanks again..

        You do Joan lol..

        Well after seeing how close both sides of my tree lives to each other it wouldnt surprise me now to find them all intermingled lol.
        I used to live in Moore in Cheshire but at the time I had no idea as that was where a lot of my rellis came from :o It was before I started my tree.We had a boat at the time and used to sail it up the canal to Barnton Tunnel to buy fuel, Oh If I had only known that my Jamesons worked there and lived by the canal..
