WINCHESTERWilliam Albert WinchesterFirstly, my apologies for the delay in thanking you for the image. As you may know, family history research goes in fits and starts (at least it does with me). I had intended to thank you as soon as the image arrived, but I stored it for later use and then promptly forgot about it. For anyone else researching the Winchesters, William Albert was/is a distant relative from Bristol.

BINNSGravestone at FEWSTON, Yorkshire - BINNS/HOLMES/HODGSONThank you Charles for your fast service that my mother Ilma received. My mom is in her 80's and we came across your site while we were researching our family. I noticed that the link you send in your emails is not "live" meaning you can't just click on it and it takes you to the photo. I had to email my mom and tell her how to copy and paste the info. into her browser. Anyway, it worked. My mom is lives in Yorkshire and I am in Canada so between us we did okay! Again, thank you for your hard work. Jan

These images will verify names and dates within the family tree. Thank you for the link to the find family Knights names. I will not request any photos until I am definate that they are ancestors. This website is of great importance to people like myself who is researching family members. I live in Australia, but have a couple of distant cousins who I am in contact with in England who is also researching the family tree. I hope to visit the churchyards when I next visit England. Furthermore, thank your dedicated volunteers who have put in the time and effort so that we can have access to these important monumental images. Arlene Hunt

HARMERMore InformationThank you once again for this lovely, clear photo, which is an enormous benefit in terms of information about this family. I can add a few things about Daniel Harmer, he was a wharfinger and managed about 7 vessels sailing to different parts of England with his colleague James Boardman,and together they traded as Boardman and Harmer. You can google "Daniel Harmer Wharfinger" and come up with various interesting articles, for example his feedback in the House of Commons where he answered questions in connection with a navigation bill, also an unfortunate story about Daniel Harmer and a steamship called "the Bold Buccleuch". Daniel was married to Maria Newby on 26th Dec 1803 at St Martin @ Palace, Norwich. Their daughter Maria Harmer was born 23rd June 1819 when her father was a waterman.In 1841 they lived at 115 West End Cottages on Chapel Field Rd, and had three servants. Maria still lived there in 1851 after Daniel died,and employed two servants and a nurse. Daniel's will was proved in Canterbury. Daughter Maria married William Jay in 1838 and then Justinian Barrell Clarke in 1845 two years after the death of William. Her will was proved in Norwich when she lived at 21 Surrey St.I hope this will be helpful to someone, the photograph of the family's monument has paradoxically brought them all very much alive to me, and I'm very grateful to have received it.
