Thanks for speedy assistance, from other names written this would definitely appear to be the same family, I had no idea as to where they were from. I have tried searching trees on this site but so far come up negative. Thanks again for the help.

Steve.

Steve, it's highly unlikely anyone connected will see this.

You'd be better off searching trees on this site for those names and contacting any likely tree owners.

If you know what part of the country they were from you could contact a local newspaper - they usually like that sort of thing.

It would be a lovely thing for a family to have, good luck.

I have recently come into possession of a British and Foreign Bible Society New Testament. Inside lists names and birth dates/times of Watkins family members starting with a Moses Watkins, 1845 and ending withan Ada Watkins 1878.
I would like to be able to forward this on to their present day family if any of them are out there reading this.
