Ah, a member of the seaweed feelers and pine-cone watchers association!
Ever come across Alan Wall?


I get the feeling I ought to remember him but my memory has failed me -
yet again.

He retired back in the mid-80s, spent his last few years in Bracknell.

As I was there (for the second time) from '78 to when they pulled it down, I
probably did know him but still can't get the grey matter to respond yet.



I took a look at your site and spotted a couple of names from my old home
area that crop up in my tree - Clayson and Dawson - albeit in some of the
outer twigs. If there are any connections, they must be further back than
my tree covers. I say tree, but if it were to be described as being like
an Elder I think it would be Ground Elder.


Clayson and Dawson are sarf London for the most part.


Ah, but they started in the Northants/Beds area where I come from (Rushden).
I have Claysons from Wilby, Northants and a couple of Dawsons from Renhold,
Beds., related to my family through marriage.

Quite a few of my blood relatives moved down to London - Islington seemed
popular - from Northants but eventually drifted back.
