Message dated 23rd December 2006

Hello - I was fascinated to find this site, since I was looking for information about the Huguenot connections of my gggrandfather John William Whiter (1833-1913), and about the family lore which says that the 
Whiter was originally Whittier! 
Looking through your extremely useful census extractions, it seems that the (unsupported) family view that JWW's father was called James is in fact correct.

 
I am now struggling to connect James (b.1802/3) to James W and Mary Barbier, in order to explain the Whittier/Huguenot legend.  Can you help with this at all?
 
If you are interested, I can supply details of JWW's family which are missing from the site as far as I can see.
 
Best regards
Simon Bailey
