    Hi, Janet, My adoptive mother is descended from Peacocks and Richardsons who emigrated from England (probably Lancashire or Yorkshire) to Clinton County, Michigan in the 1830s. I've been trying to find out their locations before emigrating, but I'm not having much luck. Do you think we could be connected?

    Thanks for your comment, Janet. Interestingly, several branches of my birth family hail from Yorkshire, not too far from Knaresborough. I'm sure we've all got sheep (and horse!) stealers in our families somewhere! :-)

    Hi Jan,
    Nice to see you are signed up. I'm not sure how often I will be checking this site, but you also have my email. Bob and I are hoping to get over to Lincs next year again. I will be going to Salt Lake City again in Oct. Hope to find out more about our PORTASes... not much new going on right now.
