While trying to get further with my tree, I came across the name Skellom, so I thought I would have a look on here to see if there were any other Skellom's, but no mine is the 1st one on here, any more of you who were the 1st to put a surname on. Bev

Yep, I have a couple, but at least one is a mis-spelling in the Parish Registers.

Hi Bev, I believe my tree is the only one on GR with the names Prestiott & Arched - would have thought they would be easy to research, that they would stick out like a sore thumb - but alas no such luck! cheers Laurie

I'm the only Torrentine on the site. My GGG Grandmother married a Samuel Torrentine. By the way it was her 3rd husband! Deb
