	I've fallen out with my tree :-\| Got soaking wet in half a dozen graveyards on Monday, taking photos and making notes, and it looks like none of them were the right ones - the names are very common ones in the area :-0 ;-)

	They may still fit somewhere GiN in the future :-)

	I have several with the same name GiN, as you say when you think you've got a connection it turns out not so. Now I have a new name to add Smith, me head hurts already :-0 :-(
Member Since: August 2015 Posts: 3,241 Send Message	LynGinN	Report	20 Aug 2015 16:36
	That's what I'm hoping, Fly, so I'm keeping them. :-D - Though I think they were too poor to afford headstones ;-) I did find the cottages where some of them had lived, though. We had a meal in an inn which was once the cottage where my GGrandmother x 3 died :-0 ;-)

	I had one Smith, Emma - but I didn't even start to look for that one ;-)

	Tread lightly GiN, I had info that did not fit and tried it several years later, convinced it did fit in and mucked up my tree when it was pointed out to me by a distant cousin it was wrong :-(

	Did you already know about your 3x ggrandmother and the cottage GiN :-0

	Trying to gather as much info from the living re the Smith's before I get into it :-)

	GiN i bought a plan of our church yard because half the stones are damaged or missing :-)

	I did, Fly - I found it on Ancestry - the address was on her probate record, though she had hardly anything to leave behind. The other places were on censuses. South West Northumberland is a really beautiful part of the country - as pretty as the Cotswolds without the tourists. :-D
