	Hi I guess this is a bit of a long shot - but you never know. Does anyone have access to the above mentioned records - or knows of a site that will have them? I have a 3 x gt grandfather - John Carew - who says he was born in Widdicombe (which appears to be in the parish of Kingsbridge) Devon. I believe he was born circa 1810/11. Many thanks in advance for any help. Angela

	Jim That's brilliant - thanks . Please could you tell me who the parents were? I have done a search on the IGI but I can't those particular Carews up - I must be doing something wrong. Cheers Angela
