Many hours
of work have been put into the research and documentation of these ancestors.
We hope you will benefit from the information that we present here. The site has been expanded to include individuals who , while we are not related in the strict genealogical sense, are linked by distant marriages.
Included, for the present, are non-related/non-linked individuals who are buried in the Peterborough District Council area. These are part of a project I'm doing which is photographing and cataloguing all the headstones in the district. Once finished the information and photos will be donated to the local tourist association as well as the local history group. The reason for having this combined with our family file, while collating the data, is that some of our families lived/married in the area and are buried here so rather than duplicate these individuals, in 2 separate databases, it is easier to have them all together. Once I've finished collating the data I will then 'clone' the individuals who are in the Peterborough District cemeteries, into a separate database and at the same time remove the non-related/non-linked individuals from the family database.
Many thanks
must go to Nancy Redpath for the bulk of the information on the Redpath's,
Barrie Hope for the Hope/Swanson/Churchett lines, Ron Nuske for the information on the Nuske families, Robert Childs for the information
on the Humpston/Humpstone families, Stewart Kerr for the information on the
Kerr families, Lorraine Homewood for the Homewood/Taylor family information, and Shirley Barrette for the information on the Ralphs family.
To all
the people who have contacted me, through our old site, and I haven't been
in contact with or haven't contacted for quite a while, please accept my apologies.
This new site handles and stores correspondence a lot better and I should
never lose anyone's contact details.
While every
effort has been made to ensure the information on this site is correct, errors
and omissions can occur. If you find incorrect data please use the 'suggest'
tab, on the page that the incorrect data appears, to let us know. I have also
included people in this database who do not appear to be linked with our families,
at present, but with more research may eventually turn out to be.
TIP: All individual's ID Numbers start with the letter "I"
and this must be included when entering the Person ID number in searches or
calculating Relationships, for example: Archibald REDPATH, Person ID: I8 which
would be entered i8 not 18. Family ID's start with the letter F and must be
included in any family search when asked to enter Family ID.
User Accounts: Are restricted to known and proven family members and/or their authorised

Proof of family connection may be required. There may be a delay, of up to
12 hours, between registering for a User Account and being approved. Please
