Wynne   10 #409 Posted May 29, 2010 Hi Sheff Bird Ican't send a private message as I need 5 posts, delighted to heat more about the Ashton family, but sorry also to see that Tucker and Joy are no longer here. You and I share the same great grandparents Sarah and Fredrick Baker, my grandma was the firstborn, when Sarah was just seventeen. Her name was Emmeline Annette, my mother was Elizabeth she was the eldest of Emmelines children, Denny was her sister, Sheila was really my mums aunty, but they were close in age and grew up together in the kelvin.........so much too say..
