Just had a further thought - What about 'Wichard Wodgers' ?? I haven't been able to find him so far. Dea x P.S. - Seriously - I am not meaning to offend, but having found 'Thethill' it has made me think ! Dea x

Just quickly looking on 1851 alone - there are 3 x Wichard's and 2 x Wobert's, so it's not as silly as it sounds?? Dea x

Yes, I suppose it would, Margaret, - BUT these little tips DO sometimes help us to find our 'elusive' ancestors ! Dea x

Good thinking I'd only thought of unusual spellings rather than unusual pronunciations... Thanks for that! Thaire wah :-)
