FAMILY AND VILLAGE HISTORY 

(Includes the recently discovered Essay about the Village by Michal Clark)
 
The editor of this village web site receives more correspondence in connection with family history research than on almost any other subject.

It has therefore been decided to try a special 'Family and Village History' page.

Press here to go into the past!

If you have any information, photographs or illustrations that might be of interest to others I should be happy to place it on this page.
