New start to my tree..

I have not posted here for a while. I have been over on my other blogg trying to get a Backgammon club up and running.  Anyway, I was looking at my family tree the other day and was thinking that I really must tidy it up and do some more research.
So with that in mind I have reactivated this Blogg in the home that someone out there may be researching the same as me.
I have already found two distant cousins via the internet so its not out of the question.

Names being researched at present are:
PRICE
WESTON
GURR
All around the Tenterden area of  Kent UK.

I am particularly interested in ANY information relating to JAMES or RICHARD WESTON  who were PRINTERS in Tenterden and Biddenden, Kent around 1800--1830.

Also ANY information related to GURR in SNARGATE, Kent.

So a short Blogg post to start. I will keep it updated as I uncover the skeletons. Please feel free to comment below on any aspect of this Blogg.   The search continues..

Research continues after WDYTYA

After a short break from family history I visited WDYTYA 2015 in Birmingham this April.
I just loved the amount of information available on that one day.

This Gave me a kick start to subscribe to the WDYTYA magazine for the bargain price of £5.00 for 6 issues on the day.
I also updated my subs for Ancestry.co.UK  so it's full steam ahead with the research.
At present I am researching:

PRICE in Kent
GURR in Kent
WESTON in Kent
MEE in Yorkshire and wiltshire
SHAW in yorkshire

Hoping to get out and about this year to explore the locations where my ancestors lived.

I am also interested in the Essex regiment per WW1.

The search finally continues.....
