A gathering of Cousins was
organised by Bridget Drummond and Mado Phillips, with help from many
other family. The prime reason for the event (apart from having a
good Cousins' Party!) was to commemorate the life and work of
John Eliot Howard who was born on
11th December 1807. Around two thirds of the 160 or
so attending came from "Budget" families descended from John Eliot,
the remainder were descendants of his brother Robert Howard. |
