Praise for the first edition:
"This particular family history is bound together by blood and property through many generations. Like all such stories it is a complex web of information and events. It is also a local history … of localities in Kent, London, Suffolk, Surrey and Sussex." — Local History"Mrs. Teague has made these people come alive for me whilst I read of their lives. She has obviously researched this book well… she weaves (her material) into an easily read narrative and… this book is an inspiration to us all." — Kent Family History Society Journal
