- Eileen D took my phone call and helped me find the rest of the Chappell family.
- Eileen D2 told me the eldest Chappell boy gambled away the family farm in Yeovilton.
- Eileen F proved for me that Francis Scott Boyce the coachman from Somerset, was indeed first cousin of 2 of my great-great-great-grandparents.
- Eileen M told me that grandpa Tabor died transplanting swedes on Christmas Day 1909.
- Eileen N wrote to me recently with information about her late father, who grew up in the orphanage in Blackburn.
And now I'm hoping Eileen G will be able to tell me all about my relative Sarah who died age 36 in Edinburgh. She is the great-granddaughter. So, come on Eileen, tell us all about it!
Postscript:
Of course - with a name like Eileen, our correspondent was always going to reply. And what a great reply we've had. Thank you! Now the big question on my lips, is which Eileen shall we hear from next - there's still at least 20 letters of the alphabet left to go. Come on, Eileen Z!
