About Old Meg
I am proud to come from Meg - I was born in the Green Man pub on Fen Road.
Recently, it has started to concern me that the history of "Old Meg" is getting lost.
I know only too well that the "MACLA" - www.macla.co.uk - website, is doing a stunning job at preserving lots of the history.
I decided to try to build a couple of Web Sites to Compliment and Supplement it.
This is to announce the opening of the first one of them - it is - www.byerswritings.co.uk/aboutMeg.asp
Please feel free to add to it Pete Byers peter_byers@compuserve.com

North Family and Boat People
I am doing the 'North' family tree. They lived in boats on the Delph and most came from Metheringham from 1799 until 1891 when then they moved to Bardney. I was just wondering if anyone has anything on the Boat People back then or any old photos etc.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thank you Shellyrussell@supanet.com

1841 - 1901 Censuses
I am willing to do census lookups from 1841 to 1901 free of charge for Metheringham and surrounding villages. Just post as much info that you have on the family and I will see what I can find. Ricky lincolnimp54@hotmail.com

Keziah Wick
I am researching the Marshall family of Bethnal Green in London.
William Marshall (born 1785) married Keziah Wick (born 1780) believed to be in Metheringham, noted as Norfolk?
Any information would be appreciated.

Family History - Atkin Family
I would like to make contact with any Atkin families still in the Metheringham area (including families directly related through marriage). My own direct line left the area in the 1870s but related branches were still there about 1900
Thanks Fred Atkin
