Hi are you after this being added to the BCC tree?
If so presume you have been in contact with the owner Grangers 14 and have been directed here or
have found us via the internet.
Either way what is it you wish doing with the above info?

Hi

Yes, I had messaged the BCC on the tribal pages, and was directed to this site, although I was already on here.

Yes I love for the information to be added to the tree. I also have lots of Dunns to be added to the tree.

Many thanks

Debbie

Have taken further and made connection to Charlotte Knowles as Eliza Hamblett was living with her parents in 1861

You may be able to trace Elizabeth Catherine Farmer as her brother was living Forrest family in 1921
Squire Farmer aged 32 born Lye Worcs.
cannot add more for copywrite reasons
