Re posted from 'banter' board for Polyanna :-
I have been researching my ancestors the Webb family of Haverhill for years, but I need help in finding the birth of Joseph Webb. He married Ann Reader in Helions Bumpstead in 1754, and died in Haverhill in 1818. His age in the burials records is given as 85 which would make his birth around 1733, He may be the brother of John Webb, born 1739 in Haverhill. I would be very grateful for any help

Hey,
Long shot here but hopefully someone can help or point me in the right direction.
I am looking for a girl called Samantha Iron who lived in Haverhill or maybe still does?
She will be around 36-38 year old, I met her at Butlins in Minehead approx 1988 and went to see her in Haverhill a few months later. Lost contact not long after that!
Just her name came up in a conversation I had with a friend who also went to Butlins that year, and decided would try and track her down.
Any ideas?

Hi My gt-grandfather - HAYDEN CLARKE - was master blacksmith at Hundon. He married Sarah Wallace and they lived in the High Street, Hundon. After the 1891 census he seems to vanish, but then turns up in the early 20th Century in Southend on Sea, Essex. Any help in tracing him and his descendants would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
I would like to buy some books from Ancestralbooks.com but I am not sure how good their products are, I checked them out and it seems that the have posted on several message boards and I heard some good things about them and their free searchable CD sounds good too.
They have some good books that I would like to have, if anyone had any experience with them, please let me know.
Thank you.

Hi, I'm still hoping to find out more about the Ridgewell family who lived in Sturmer. My husband's grandfather Harry was born in 1875, one of 9 children born to William Ridgewell and his wife Harriet (nee Salmon). There are numerous Ridgewells buried in the parish church at Sturmer, but unfortunately not one headstone. If anyone can tell me anything at all about the family it would be greatly appreciated.

Phill, thank you for your posting of 21st Jan and it is very helpful in confirming my findings. I have information on the battle where Albert died and have also downloaded a photograph of the Cambrai memorial. I am just trying to put the final pieces together in the Albert Loveday write up and have come across a problem. I have looked up the married of Henry Charles Loveday on free BDM and have found a marriage in 1897 of Henry Charles Loveday and Lillie NUNN which is at odds with your earlier information where Henry's wife was given as Lilly MARSH. Ihave not looked at the original wedding documents at Bury snd so there may be a transcription error, I certainly have found some in researching other names on the War Memorial. Do you have any clues? I found Albert's birth and baptism at Bury Record Office last week when the family were recorded as living at 140 Burton End. His mother is just recorded as Lilly. If it is easier for you to contact me by email my addres is: michaelh123@talktalk.net Many thanks for all of your assistance it is very much appreciated.
Michael
