Hi everybody. greetings from south west Ireland where it's a beautiful autumn day after the recent storms.
I've been researching my family who lived mainly in the south east of England and around London although some came from as far north as Leicestershire. We also have a branch (Barritts) who came from Cornwall and Jamaica on route to London.
This hobby started after my father died, trying to find who his father was who died in WW1, and rapidly became an addiction. I come to London frequently as I have two children living there so sources in south east would be useful.
