Hallo, I am a retired University Lecturer living in Brighton Sussex.The Universities I taught at were West of England (ft)Brighton,(pt) Sussex(pt)South Bank (ft)London Metropolitan University,when Uni of North London(ft).I am a member of the best cricket team in the country, Sussex CCC. My partner is Liz Williamson who is Deputy Head of Civil Aviation at the International Transport Workers Federation. I have with others researched the Philo line back to the 17 th century.Circumstantial evidence shows that we probably have Huguenot origins although we cannot as yet establish the direct connection.My side of the family has roots in East Dereham and Swaffham ,Norfolk England from the 17 th century.We gradually moved to London in the nineteenthcentury.The Philo mensome of whom were my direct ancestors were for a long period of approx 200 years Parish clerks in the two above mentioned towns as well as Poplar in London.My current interest is researching a diary of James Philo 1810-1873 who lived in Swaffham and was a small businessman. Iam very happy to share Philo knowledge with others.I continue to want to know more about Swaffham 1810-73.I would also if possible like to establish the Huguenot link.I am also with less energy pursuing the murky depths of my mothers family, Wybrew. I am also when time allowssearching Liz's origins which possibley connect to the Bruces and Stuarts Paul | |
