Hello Katharine,

Nice to hear from you. I wonder if we can find a connection between us. It's where to start I suppose.

Have you looked into your family history at all?

I live in Yorkshire but have visited Bisley several times in the last couple of years.

Do you have your grandfathers birth year and does your mum have any memory of grandparents or great grandparents?

I have quite a bit of information about my family up to about 1900 but then after that only my direct line is particularly clear.

I have spotted a Sydney Hale on the war memorial. He was killed on the Somme. He was my 1st Cousin twice removed.

regards

Ron
