Hi-- Odessa, I wish I knew how to work these bl......dy computers,
As a pensioner I am not up to all these electronic machines,I get so easily confused,
I will have to wait till my son comes off holiday to ask him How!
I cant even put my tree on genes reunited etc,anyone needs a copy I have to post,
Many thanks Odessa, its the name Ravenscroft, I am researching, and if I knew what date the hall was built etc., I could link with the correct Ravensxcroft.

Hi Ron,
The Wettenhalls lived in the old Hall. We are trying to find the book that describes their life there. I don't know of any Ravenscrofts in NZ except those descended from the one that married the Wettenhall. My Great Grandfather called his farm in Tasmania Ravenscroft.

Hi Phillip where in Tasmania was your great grand fathers farm my daughter Patricia Ravenscroft lives in Devonport Tasmania
my Ravenscrofts where from Bunbury & Peckforton in Cheshire
