​A good crowd last night at Loose school near Maidstone to hear me talk about tracing Kentish ancestors.

​Some people were rather amused to discover that my great-grandfather Charles Elvy Wright and King George III shared something in common​: they each produced 15 children in 23 years! No way really of stopping babies in those times, and of course innumerable Victorian families had a dozen or more children, even if a proportion died as infants. How times have changed, now that even three or four are considered an expense.
