My ancestral line is rooted in Sarf Benfleet. One of me ancestors from there, with his missus from Poplar, went off globe trotting with the army in the mid 1800's, and on their return settled in Isle of Wight, and subsequent generations went on to pollute the gene pools of Dorset for a while. We continue to pollute the gene pools in many parts of the UK.leaving Benfleet

And once had work connections with one in the PLA - a captain no less. Tis a small world ----
