Welcome to all our new members

glad to see all the new members especially those who have had to wait a while lots of people with good advice and knowledge on the forum which makes it a great place for us to be:D
 
Thank's for the welcome, It's been a long wait, but I'm sure that it will be worth it.
OH...... and thank you to Maggieuk for reassuring me while I was out there in the dark waiting ;)
 
I have a fair bit about the Breakwell/Brakewell/Brecknocks/Powles/Poles on file.

Hi All

I'm another newbie who's been out in the cold, nose pressed to the window waiting to be let in!

I'm married to a Brummie but now find that relatives on my Fathers maternal side came from there too. I've made contact with a few but still looking for any Beavan's whose ancestors came from Herefordshire.

I'm looking forward to exploring this site and 'picking your brains'.
