Hi Duffield of Bicton,
I am a ggg grandson of John Hole. I and my brother are just about to publish all we can find of the Duffields in a family history which includes the Cleavers (Charles Hole married two Cleaver girls). We have used Oliver Duffields book "Duffields of Bicton" Vols 1-3 as a start. We have used Trove to find many references to the Duffields in contemporary newspapers of the day. The Duffield - Cleaver volume will be over 400 pages when complete.
How can I help?
