Hi Mick. Have a feeling the Pomfrets in this family line were factory workers - though Benjamin's church marriage record cites him as being 'stripper bachelor'. I seriously doubt that this meant he took it all off for a living, more like it was a job in the mill! It is possible the chemist could be some relation down the track but there were so many of this name, would like to know where they originated from.
While I am answering you Mick I would like to take this opportunity to say how much I enjoy the Acc'y Web - love to read the rapport (sometimes a bit cheeky but often very funny) between your regular correspondents. Keep up the good work!
