by slowhands , proud of his ancient Dean Forest roots, Monday, August 31, 2009, 22:59 (5637 days ago) @ r meek

close to 1838 !

Jim's comments - My interest here is that George William Meek's father George Meek was the illegitimate son of Amelia Jane Meek, who went on to marry Richard Goode,
I suspect this may be a Wigpool / Abenhall area MEEK /GOODE family some healthy debate may follow !
