Dear Mary,
Thank you for your letter which I received yesterday. From what you say it does seem possible that we could be related. My father was Harry Trevan and his father was Samson born Crafthole, Sheviock reg. St Germans 1844. From information given to me by an English cousin of the family now living in Sydney that Samsons father was also named Samson. Grandfather Samsons mothers name was Jane Northcott, his wife came from Devon, I think her name was Higman.
My cousin Joyce (sister to the one in Sydney) lives in Norfolk. Her name and address is Joyce Banks, The Grange, Redden Hall, Harleston, Norfolk. Telephone no 0379852204. She is the one I mentioned in my letter to Bob Trevan.
I will be writing to Joyce with your information so I hope you will be able to contact her and compare notes.
Hope to hear from you again Mary.
Yours sincerely

P.S. The "A" is Arthur, my names are from my fathers two brothers William and Arthur.
