Introduction. A census is a snapshot for us of where all the Steathams are at a particular moment in time, and it also enable us see the expansion and geographical distribution of the Steatham family. Each census gradually increased the amount of data being collected. This is a continuing process more will be added, when I have time. Once one census is finished I will move to the next. |
