Edith Ashbarry - died last year
Mary Ashbarry living
Dorothy Ashbarry - died this year
Arnold Ashbarry - living

The Thomas you received an e-mail from is my uncle

I think your father would have been a cousin of my father's - my father died in 1976 so I can't ask him - I think the Hanna you mention would have been Hannah Dodgin - I believe she would be my great grandmother.

I plan on doing research when I find the time - we travel to England all the time - I still have cousins there. I would love to know what the relationship is with Joseph Ashbarry - If you don't mind sending me a copy in the mail I would be in your debt.

stay in touch,
