Oooo lovely!
Many thanks, Kate :)
- I've just found that which led me to his probable siblings and parents (mother Mary Preston - of Staverton)

I wanted to browse the Staverton images but I can't seem to get the 'browse images' option... :-(


EDIT: - Thanks Shona - I went off looking then replied without refreshing the page so hadn't seen your reply too.
