I CAN also tell you a fair deal about Rachael Hatchett (née Burdekin). I think she is probably the only one whose married name I can readily bring to mind. She was born about a quarter of a mile away from where I was and four days previously, at Crossroads Farm, Blackbrook. She now lives not too far away at Belper Lane End and is currently involved in the campaign to save St. Faith's Church, Belper Lane End. You will probably have noticed elsewhere on the site my 'Holiday Blogs' about short breaks taken at a friends' house in Kilkhampton, Cornwall. When I'm staying there 'my' room was once Rachael's cousin, Piers'.
