We are searching Petch family tree, and my Grandparents and family are buried in the old graveyard at Summerseat. I have been to the churchyard before to look for their graves when it had been started to be tidied, a few years back but could not find their grave it was a double grave down near the wall going up towards the school.

I would love to see the graves tidied and made safe, so that we could go and show our own family where there ancestors are buried. Keep up the good work.

I visit Peters pages quite often. My three times gt granparents all came from Summerseat, I am particularly researching my Hilton ancestors who lived here in the early nineteenth century. Samuel and Grace Hilton are buried in the old Rowlands Cemetary, alas their gravestones are not among the pictures that Peter has obtained. My other ancestors are the Hargreaves family from Tottington.

I would like to take the opportunity once again to thank Peter and his wife for all the hard work they put into this website

My ancestors were cotton mill workers in the American south I was fortunate in that I came along late enough that I was spared ever having to work in those terrible places My grandfather was a carder at a cotton mill in Columbus Ga and a lot of my aunts and uncles worked there also He my grandfather was an inventor as well and came up with several innovative devices for use in cotton mills and received patents on several of them but it seems that his patent attorney stole the best one.

Researching:

Waters, McFarland, Baxter, Marable, Phurrough, Vick, Bennett, Moody, Rhodes, and Alverson to mention just a few. The area or research is primarily Georgia, Alabama, South and North Carolina. A lot of my ancestor came from the the Atlanta area where I now live so I am able to check out cemeteries, libraries, and court houses.
