One thing did ring a bell my great aunt Catherine ( Kate ) Geoghegan was deaf and dumb, looks like it may be a Geoghegan inhertance. Have you found any more information on your family? All information welcomed. best wishes Paulette

Also either she or her husband, whose surname was GARDNER was profoundly deaf, as were some of her children and grandchildren. They lived in Lancashire, probably the Bolton area, and the name 'Edgefold' has a link to the family. Do any of these facts ring a bell with anyone?
