Notable Linked Families

This section lists links with families I consider notable to me in some special way. For example, I am very proud to be linked to the Fenwick family (see Margaret Fenwick – Samuel Coates below) who although they started off on Feldom with a small shop in Richmond which the owner walked to, they are now owners of the famous Fenwick Department Store chain. You can read the history of Fenwicks on their website here.
