For the last few days we have been visiting Whitby in Yorkshire. My family history is from here. My great, great, grandfather Edward Greenbury was from Whitby. We found a tombstone of Richard Purvis and Elizabeth Bell who were my great, great, great grandparents.
Bram Stoker wrote Dracula in Whitby and the book is based here. We havent seen any vampires around though.
ill write again soon. Love Max.
