Next time we come over, we might have to check out your area.  We don't necessarily just want to visit the touristy places.  Are you near Nottinghamshire?  My husband's people emigrated from there, but way back, 17th century.  One other question, you mentioned Doulton Clay PIt.  Would that be related to Royal Doulton of Hyacinth Bucket fame?  LOL
If you do come to our area Ruth you will be more than welcome to spend a day with us - we could show you some of the sights! We about an hour and a half from Nottinghamshire- my Auntie lives there in Chilwell. A great place to stay near here is Ironbridge - it's a beautiful place with loads of heritage museums. My family have all moved to Bewdley which is another lovely place. Doulton's Claypit is named after Royal Doulton - it used to be called Saltwells Clay Field until the Royal Doulton Company bought it and then extracted clay for fine china until the 1930's. So Mrs Bucket has probably got some fine china mined near us!
