I think you will find that it is Nick’s 4x great grandfather, John, who was the Cabinet Maker in Adwalton, near Birstall, Yorkshire. They are also in my tree.

Interesting article, however “working just a few hundred miles apart” struck me as strange. Could as easily have been “working hundreds of miles apart”

Thanks for highlighting the typo Bekko! We have since made the amend. Band & Brown is the PR agency we work with to promote all our great content.

We made the discovery about Cameron and Brown’s ancestors being farmers back in 2007 – you can read the full story by clicking here http://www.ancestry.co.uk/about/default.aspx?section=pr-2007-4-13.

Thanks for your comments!

Er … “tolling the fields”?

Toiling in the fields perhaps, or tilling the fields.

And, why are you promoting Mr Lowe of Band & Brown, a London PR company?

Almost as good the second time, a few days after I first read it on findmypast’s website. It’s pretty much identical!

I know the election has a limited number of things you can say about it, but all the same….
