We have now had e-mails from three people who are interested in tracing details of the Slawson family in Brigstock and enabled them to contact each other to pass on information on their respective family histories. We have also recently received an enquiry regarding the Loveday family in Brigstock. Anyone with information on the Slawson family or the Loveday family in Brigstock can e-mail Bill Simon, or contact a member of the committee.Forthcoming visits:-
