I dunno, i sometimes wonder about folk, I've had an email from across the pond asking about an ancestors will, they are abit confused about their ancestors surname as they think he used an alias, they've been looking for him for quite awhile but can't find how he came to use the name, they write:
'His name was Ralph Leyland Gent, I have not been able to connect the surname Gent with him anywhere..............'
Lol, if he had only been Ralph Leyland Pauper she may have twigged lol

Hoe funny - bless them! I love the odd stories that come up when researching family history - but this is the funniest yet Dot!

Oh yes, the Pauper family, came from humble beginnings and never made it very far up the social ladder.
