References: Russell Ash supplied many of the birth and death dates, and Doug Ash narrowed down the date of Henry's death. Sadly, Russell Ash died in 2010 and his site is no longer live; an archived partial copy of his family history page is available. David Ash had an extensive genealogy of the Ash family on his site Ash of Cannock, now sadly defunct (although remnants may be viewed at archive.org). |
