I found this a fun site BEHIND THE NAME
Put in your family's names and see what they mean - or find a name for your baby

In the 40 years from 1725 to 1765 a Russian peasant woman, who lived in Shuya, Russia, became pregnant 27 times and not once did she have a single-child birth

She had a TOTAL of 69 CHILDREN !!

Her name is not recorded except that she was the first wife of Feodor Vassilyev

She had
- 16 sets of twins
- 7 sets of triplets
- 4 sets of quads

no birth date for her but she died 16 June 1782

ty researching that family 100 years later . . .

Does anyone have any 'first hand' information on the maritime artist Frank Barnes who lead a solitary life on Riddifords farm during the late 1890s - early 1900s.
I have some information from the net
FRANK BARNES but he was such a loner little was known
I would like some handed-down news

Is there anyone in that area that would be willing to take a couple of photos at the cemetery for me please
