The information on this web site has been garnered by a number of people over 35 years in a computerised form. The Background page has the detail. I am most grateful to those who provided information over the year, not forgetting those I do not know. The first were correspondents to my father, mainly family members in England especially his brother Edward and, even more my aunt Margaret, Canada, my cousin Elaine in Winnipeg, and the USA, especially Harriette Jefferies, in the days before the Internet. The second group are those who corresponded with by brother, most of whom I don't now have a record of. Much of his research was done by mail but later by the 'early' Internet systems.
Since I have resumed the research I have had much help from a number of sources. For the Jefferies I have had the help of my niece Melissa and lots of notes left by my brother which I am still getting to grips with. In addition I have had help from the late Petrea Buxcey, another Jefferies descendant. The majority of information about the 'American' Jefferies has come from Sally Howard, the daughter of Harriette Jefferies. Information for the Galtons and Smiths have come from my cousin Elaine and her husband Howard. I have had contact with members of Blundells; a very large family in Kent and Titcheners but without much impact on 'my' ancestors as yet. However four researchers who are working on the Streatfields have proved a very large resource; these are Malcolm Streatfield, Trevor and Val Gibbons and Ron Ellis, their knowledge and input has greatly contirbuted to the site.

Apart from my Uncle Hattie Galton who emigrated to Canada in the 1920's his uncle Stephen Smith moved there in the early 1900's. The web site that did have details of some Canadian Smiths seems to have been deleted. (Jan 2012).
