Firstly Mr Winnington-Ball I must apologise,
I really thought I was above all this bandage you have had to suffer, a fine old English name like Winnington-Ball should receive the honour it deservers.
However urged on by those naughty Colonials I had a look into your family tree and came up with the following remote ancestors.
I have to beg your forbearance in such foibles………. nay such liberties with your profound signifier, still I tarry unnecessarily….. to book I found the following:
Mr Ffoeg Townning-Bainll (Welsh boarders sheep farmer who in 1700’s was given the choice of a custodial sentence or transportation to the Dominions, crime not recorded, but involved sheep)
Mr Geoffrey Twinningon-Allb (diarist who fell foul of the church in 1600’s and had to beat a hasty retreat to the Americas, it is rumoured that he left diaries behind under a synonym not known)
I found this dip into your genealogy most efficacious after a weeks endeavour to earn a crust at my lectern.
Please do not hesitate to advise if I can be of further assistance
Yours truly,
Etep Hasby
