American visitors return to their roots
A GROUP of 25 Americans are visiting Punnetts Town to trace their homes of their ancestors who emigrated from the village in the mid 19th century.
Reuben Punnett left Punnetts Town in 1843 and the American visitors are hoping to meet some of their English cousins.
They will get together for a celebration lunch in the Barley Mow pub at 12.30pm on July 20.
The visitors will have a history talk by Molly Beswick and a tour of the village to see where their ancestors lived.
They also plan to visit the school and the village hall.
