Dear Christine,

Thanks so much for replying, I was so pleased to read it. And yes, we must be distantly related, my Uncle Royston is still alive, though unfortunately my dad George, the eldest brother died a few months ago and Frances the youngest sister also passed away some time ago.

The connection is that Noah's father John (my great grandfather) was married to Esther Hallaway from Pillowell, although I have seen lots of different spellings of Hallaway including Ellway.

I always thought that my dad's family came from Wales but since searching back, I am happy to discover that they all came from Pillowell and before that Newnham back to the 1840's.

Thank you once again and very best wishes to you,

AJ
