Trying to disentangle Lannings in Kington Magna is a nightmare - or it would be if there weren't wills and death duty registers leading to burial registers with ages at death. Every single public Ancestry tree has got its knickers in a twist, even if the ultimate gene stock is the same.
My placid assumptions about ancestors' lives are constantly being turned on their heads by new discoveries.
