Some recent feedback (talks in the UK)

Talk given to the Thanet History Society at Birchington with Chairman, Michael Lucas.
... without exception the comments were all complimentary. Many were particularly entertained by your jokes. Thank you for coming over and I have already recommended you to other U3A’s and some WI’s.

 Littlehampton U3A, West Sussex
... thank you so much for a very informative and entertaining talk last night. While I had accessed some hospital sites as I mentioned I hadn't thought about using freedom of information to find more details. I will certainly bear that in mind. I hope that we will see you back in Deal before long
 
Deal Branch of The Kent Family History Society
... thank you very much for giving us you talk on your work and experiences on Heir Hunters, I had some fantastic feedback from our ladies and some took your details for other organisations.  Hope to see you again in the near future.
 
​Gates Green W.I. 
.... judging by the later comments,  members really appreciated your knowledge and insights.  I was particularly interested in your comments about Brighton.  My Great Grandfather lived in Park Street in the 1830`s and 1840`s, and I have read Edward Cresy`s 1849 report on sanitation and health issues in Brighton - horrific by today`s standards.

U3A Petersfield
... thank you for your talk on Saturday, which, I know, was enjoyed by the 52 members who attended. We knew that we would have a good crowd, because people had been very enthused when they heard that you were visiting us, and they were not disappointed.  

​NW Kent Family History Society, Bromley
... thirty years  ago we were contacted  out of the blue by Fraser and Fraser who had tracked us down regarding an inheritance from someone we had never heard of and had no knowledge of his existence.  There were also four people on the other line so eight of us shared the inheritance eventually receiving just under £10.000 pound each after Frasers had taken their 30%.  We had just moved into a large Victorian house which needed a lot of work so it came in very useful!

From the most recent Australia Tour

... we received wonderful feedback – our customers really appreciated having access to Lady Teviot's expertise. Many of the feedback forms commented on Lady Teviot's great knowledge of the subject, and her generosity in sharing this knowledge so freely.  If there is ever another opportunity to welcome you both back.

​Laura Landman - Brisbane City Council
... it was amazing and so very successful.     Mary, even had ladies who went from venue to venue, some without a car.  They became like friends by the time we had finished.  The only thing Mary thought was 'I hope I don't keep repeating something from the previous talk',  but if she did no one noticed.
