A recently unearthed ancestor of mine was Benjamin Ion (or Iyon) - married Agnes Fleming 1719 Coniston & had 7 known
children at Torver.
Does anyone know anything of his origins or any further details about this family (am I descended from daughter Ann)?
Also, a general query: how is the name pronounced (& I suspect there's more than 1 answer to that)?
