    On of Charles SWAIN's poems
    A Violet In Her Hair

    A violet in her lovely hair,
    A rose upon her bosom fair!
    But O, her eyes
    A lovelier violet disclose,
    And her ripe lips the sweetest rose
    That's 'neath the skies.

    A lute beneath her graceful hand
    Breathes music forth at her command;
    But still her tongue
    Far richer music calls to birth
    Than all the minstrel power on earth
    Can give to song.

    And thus she moves in tender light,
    The purest ray, where all is bright,
    Serene, and sweet;
    And sheds a graceful influence round,
    That bellows e'ed the very ground
    Beneath her feet! 

The idea of these charts is to give the information that we have found in the research we have done and put together and with the help of many other people who have contacted us over the past thirty odd years we have been researching our family. The idea is that you click on the Chart box in blue to be taken to the next family. There is now a large number of charts to be found and connections can be made to all the main families I am researching. If a chart has a box with the standard background it means that as yet I have not put the Chart on the Web.
To conform to the Data Protection Act all the Charts have been altered to exclude all details for living people other than the name.
