I spent Sunday travelling to St Neots and back to collect three beds, but that's another story. Everything was going to plan until I got stuck in a 15 mile traffic jam on the M3. This meant I was two hours late arriving. The plan had been to spend an hour or so looking round Hitchin Cemetery on the way back, but in the end I got 15 minutes. I didn't find any graves from my direct line but I did come across the headstone of my 2nd Great Grand Uncle, Daniel Crawley. His wife, Martha, is buried in the same plot along with their Grand-Daughter, Mabel Constance who died aged 18. I wonder why she died at such a young age?After eight hours on the road the chilled bottle of Ermie and Gertie's cider waiting for me at home was most welcome!
