Hi, Jefff.

Thanks.

Actually, it was a combination of things. I started by looking at the map, but knew all roads to the Clarke/Morse clan lead to Awre/Blakeney/Viney Hill . . .

So, I started looking at the Gales in an widening circle with Blakeney Hill at it's centre. After I'd looked, unsuccessfully, at the ones I thought most likely, I resorted to poking through some alphabetically.

Richard and his older brother Thomas also lived for a time in Yorkley, so that's worth a shufty as well, I suppose, as he was mining then.

I found another Morse, but then couldn't find the note I made of the location. I don't have the time I would like to dedicate to the project but will keep trying.
