The Ogle Family of Cheswick Knab:


A family of great interest as they feature on our family tree.  Some of these people have proved very difficult to trace.  

The Tait Family:


Our search for our Tait family has resulted in us collecting a large number of unrelated Tait/Tate families.  

The Hills Family:


Related to the Ogles, the family has been traced all over Northumberland and into Durham.
