Date: Fri, 28 Oct 2005 19:19:58 +0100 From: "Jane Richardson" My paternal grandmother was born Hannah Maria Lake 20th August 1886 in Strood, Kent UK. She had a brother John Henry Lake b c 1891 - I knew him very well as Great Uncle Jack. We looked after him after Hannah died as he had lost touch with his own family. Hannah married my grandfather Jesse Norwood Stringer. If any of John Henry's family are out there researching I would love to here from you. Their parents were John Henry Lake born between 1857 and 1859 also in Strood and Sarah Ann Hogwood born c. 1860-1862 in London (area not known) John Henry Lake (Snr) father was called Stephen (obtained from marriage certificate - no other details known and Sarah's father was called Joseph Hogwood. If any of this has any connection with anyone else please get in touch This is largely an unresearched line of mine but I was reminded of my Lake line when I went to see Greg Lake in concert last week. He was in Emmerson Lake & Palmer and King Crimson and has a southern accent - anyone know anything about him?
