I WOULD like to say a big thank-you to everybody who got in contact with me regarding my recent letter offering to help Pratley descendants to find out more about their ancestors.

I also managed to introduce two second cousins who weren’t aware of each other until they realised they shared the same great-grandfather and were delighted to be given each others’ contact details.

I reported in my initial letter that there is a free Pratley website, but for people who are interested in their family history that haven’t got access to the internet, they can always ring me on 07468 077160.
