Hello Sally Just got a new birth cert from GRO - pretty much per expected date (2nd class post on 12th, arrives 14th - seems ok to me!). John CHAPMAN b 26.5.1838 Sheepwash parents: John CHAPMAN (maltster) & Mary nee BALSDON of Sheepwash (doesn't say where/when the parents were born of course!) If you can find them for me - presumably in Sheepwash, or possibly Black Torrington or thereabouts, I should be delighted. thanks Christine
