~ CANTERBURY, KENT ~

A few years ago I began researching my TERRY family who lived in Canterbury, and in the process, fell in love with the city's historical uniqueness. Since then I've spent time researching my family, the history, the buildings, and many other things pertaining to the city. I've managed one trip to see Canterbury firsthand on a lovely rainy October day.

I've decided to share what I have gathered so far, and what I truly love in the hope that it may help someone else understand the roots of their family history better, or allow them to appreciate this truly historic city. The contents of the site are areas which are of particular interest to me personally, and I'm certain with time, this site will continue to grow as I gather more information and insight into this beautiful city.

My family were Grocers, Upholsterers, Carpenters, Labourers, Printers & Freemen of this historic city.

This personal site is a testament to my fascination and love of all things Canterbury.

I'd like to say a special thank you to Tricia Baxter for all of her extra knowledge, time, and photographs which have enhanced the site considerably. Also to all the other wonderful people who have loaned me items for the site, a big "THANK YOU" to all of you.

This site is for PERSONAL use only. The pictures used on the site are all from OLD original books/pamphlets/photo's/etchings/postcards in my collection, (with the exception of the directories). The pages are fairly heavy in "visual" references, so I would recommend a high-speed connection as well as the Flash player which is used on several pages.
