  1. Hi Tracey,

    I found your blog while looking up my family name, my grandfather was Arthur James Wardill, born in Kingston 1878. His father was James Wardill and his mother Eliza Betts.
    My mother was Elizabeth Doreen, and her brother James.

    I remember my mother telling me that his family came from Yorkshire....so wonder if he was related in any way to your family. My names is Norma Farmer.
