Many many thanks, Marion, for all the information you have posted.  Because it is a lot to take in and study I have printed the page and will go through it all carefully.  You must have put in such a lot work and I really appreciate it.  The name Bramston is very unusual - we dont know any other families with that name in it.  At times, we wondered if it really should have been Branston and somebody at sometime misheard and wrote it down wrongly. Who knows.  Anyway, I'm sure this is a very good start you have given me so I'll get through all the stuff and get back to you later.
