Received the following request in our inbox - all the way from Tasmania
Hello, I lived in Link Cottage, (on Charing Hill) in the early sixties. I have many fond memories of those times. I now live in the Central Highlands of Tasmania and would be very pleased to correspond with anyone who remembers me.....
I returned to Charing in 1995 for a visit and wrote a comment in the visitors book located in the church, hoping that some one may have seen the entry and contacted me. But to
no avail. I am happy to have my email address disclosed to anyone who would like to contact me.
Regards, Julian Wilding.
If anyone remembers Julian and wants to get (back) in contact, drop me an email and I'll forward your message to him (or give you his email address - for obvious reasons, avoiding spam, his email address is not publicly published here).
Hello,
First, let me apologize for sending this e-mail to you, but I do not know who to contact. I am bringing a group of 13 members of my family to Kent from 20 June thru 26 June to visit our family's heritage sites in the Charing - Boughton Aluph area. We have traced our family to William "Atte Welle" who was chaplain of the "church at Pette" as early as 1334. I understand that the small church is in ruins just next to the Pett Place House. I have written to "occupant" at Pett Place, but have had no response. We would very much like to visit the ruined church during our visit since it is the earliest known building associated with our family. Can you help me make contact or offer me suggestions on how I can accomplish this? Thank you so much.
Regards,
John B. Wells
Newnan, Georgia
