Privacy Policy: This page has been blocked from being picked up by search engines, meaning that the very limited personal details of living people it contains (names, dates and places of birth, parents and children) should theoretically be found only by actually looking for them on this page. Other pages, such as 'First Generation', will be accessible to search engines (or directly linked to selected genealogy search engines) and hopefully surname searches will lead relatives indirectly to this page.
Important note to the people mentioned on this page: Most people likely to bother exploring this page will be relatives. Information appearing on it was supplied by various relatives around 1990, and hopefully the transcribing is correct. Only Lydia's branch is known to be accurate to 2000! If you would prefer not to have your name appear on it, or to have information added, removed, or in some way altered, please contact me. Remember that this method is FAR cheaper - and far easier to access and amend - than a printed book. You (i.e. relatives) are obviously free to print it out for your own family tree collection. Contact email or other addresses (postal, fax, phone) may be added, but by the personal request of the addressee only!!
