Hi all, I was chatting with my SIL last night, ans she mentioned that part of her mother's family originated in England. The family name is Southcombe, and they were in Rose Ash, near South Molton in Devon. There were members of the family who were the vicars for over a century at the church St Peter in Chains, in Rose Ash. The family built a huge mansion on a farm named Honiton Braham (?), and the house was named Honiton Hall. Any lace connections there I wonder.. The reproduction of a photo she has of the family coat of arms shows the arms have been placed on a piece of lace, reminiscent of Torchon, but it was such a poor reproduction of the photograph I could well be mistaken, all I could see was that it was a very geometric lace behind the shield the arms were mounted on. Any one with any info, feel free to email directly. By the way, they are going to be cruising in the northern hemisphere this coming July, around the Baltic Sea area, and as far west as Iceland. Can somebody please give me an indication of the temperatures they might encounter. Maxine - from a distinctly autumnal N.Z. Maxine Diffey
