    Some of you may remember that I am doing a one-name study and am always on the hunt for new Brewertons.
    I know about GR and roots chat, are there other forums out there that people use which might bring me into contact with people of that name?
    Many thanks.
    If it's to be, it's up to me.

        i have a brereton grave photo.
        i think you mentioned at one time that name was included so when i went to the Derby cemetary(i havent learnt how to spell it yet.) i took a photo of a grave because the name was familiar.
        then again i also took photos of calladines and topliss graves incase they came in handy.

          Many thanks for those suggestions. My biggest success so far is facebook but I am always hoping to come across people who have done their tree. However it seems that most people who have done so are on GR or ancestry both of which I have used to make contacts.
          Hi Meercat, Brereton is a name in it's own right though Brewertons were sometimes spelt Brereton. Would welcome the details of the photo just in case there was a connection.

            well here is the photo and you might come across someone who wants it for themselves.
            do what you want with it.
            one day i might find a brewerton for you because i know there was one in derby.

                          Many thanks for all the suggestions. Have discovered that I am a member of B-G but had not changed my e-mail so I have put my one name study on there and seem to be about to have a brick wall knocked down!! Am investigating the other suggestions.
