Having just shown our Hatfield Local History Society publications on this forum, here too is a family history book which I wrote and published last year.

Unless your surname is Marris or you have a family relationship, this book will be of little interest. But, as my great uncle Harold spent fifty years researching the family starting in the early 1900s and I then spent another twenty-five years on the subject, I did feel it worth publishing. The book was sent to family members around the world, rather than aiming for global sales.
American readers on this forum may be interested that one of my ancestors fought on the British side in the American War of Independence - and was badly injured.
I won't reveal more, You will just need to buy a copy.
The front cover shows our family coat of arms.
