  1. #Rochford is another Brexity council area in Essex, but it's interesting to note that nobody seems to be greatly profiting of what seems to be a gradual Conservative decline.

  3. Here I am again back in Boston where I started my search for the Tilney family.

    The summer took me to two villages on either side of the Humber in search of this lady’s maternal ancestry. It is possible that this is Margaret the wife of Frederick Tilney.

    Margaret and Frederick had at least one son, whose descendants would go on to greater things (depending on your point of view that is) in the mid-16th century.

    Margaret’s effigy once lay in the church of St John’s in Skirbeck. It is this area, which predates Boston itself, that I find myself this weekend.
