Sydney Hale was my great uncle his brother George was my grandfather i only know that my great grandfather was also called George and that he married a girl called mary and they had children sydney, george, evalina and margaret and that they lived by the wells which up until 4 years ago was still owned by the Hale family. Unfortunately my father Michael passed away nearly eight years ago but his sister is still alive i will have to ask her more but it seems that we are related
