    Thanks dizzy, just awaiting a further reply from Susan which hopefully will contain the answer I have been looking for. Dodderhill (Grandfather) followed by Droitwich (Father) are the main target area's for Susan currently and although relatively certain of the result it just needs official documented clarification (Father & Grandfather) back to about 1650.

    Feels amazing to break through that brickwall and find the evidence needed! Hope you receive the info from Susan. Sounds like she has been worth her money :D

    So much more to do as always Karen. Very little info on the main prospects on Ancestry as previously explained which probably means I will just hit another brick wall looking for their ancestors until outstanding records appear online.

    The news I have been waiting for arrived today from Susan, not only parents of Benjamin but grandparents & Great Grandparents back to 1620 including siblings etc etc. Anyone needing help I can highly recommend Susan.
    I have asked she carry on after doing such a great job.

    Been a while since being on here last, trail has taken me back to John Everton of Dodderhill, Droitwich 1630-1718. He was a Tailor in Droitwich and quite wealthy according to his will. We are now looking at Elmbridge for his birth & parents. I have received an enormous amount of info off Susan regarding his family and their siblings which has been fascinating.
    Hope to cross over the 1600 barrier very soon.

    Thanks Karen, considering I am paying Ancestry for almost nil results due to the lack of Worcestershire records online Susan is proving to be very cost effective, I would still be stuck in Hallow without her.

    2020 proving to be quite a barrier to research, flooding and Covid-19 has slowed progress significantly. Ancestry providing almost nothing in my area of interest and The Hive is now closed due to virus I believe. Not suprising but records for 1500's are becoming harder to find. Hope you are all keeping safe.

    Just thought I would let everyone know I'm still here.
    Covid has pretty much ceased any meaningful research I'm afraid.
    Hope you are all keeping well.
