I'm miles from France

I found a whole stack of old family photographs. Who are they, where did they come from, where did I come from? This blog tells the story of my family and hopes to answer the age old question: Where did I come from?

[Some few additional items of interest are shown in this collection, under sections covering W3/4/[3]3 *Joanna Rosina Stanford nee Warner and W3/4.[3][4]

*Joseph Cox Warner who married Matilda Stanford.] The eight children of *John and Maria Stanford were:
