Richard's letter was fun to read and I thank you for sharing the link. He even recalled having a drink at the Royal Oak on Littledean Hill which my ancestor operated from 1838 to 1852 so long before Richard's time! Memories are such fun to share and so very much a part of our history. My husband is now in care and I visit him every day and every day we share memories. We are far more honest about our feelings now than at the time of the memory and we have the benefit of knowing the outcome and that together we made it through the difficult times. We both look forward to sharing our memories on my visits.

The Forest of Dean Family History Trust is an amazing website, so much information and the ability to ask queries and get such helpful answers from locals. I have thoroughly enjoyed this last week of exchanges and as a result, I've learned so much more about where my Tingle ancestors worked and lived.

Thank you.
