Jubil is the name that made me research my family.

The only one thing that made me want to research my family, was a name. Ive never heard a name like it, the more i looked at it the more curious i got. That name was Jubil.I have my fathers,mothers Birth Certificate Elizabeth Ellen Corfield, in my possession, Jubil Corfield was her father,this name obviously is written on the certificate.Then i Had to research Jubil,Easily i found out that his father was called William Corfield.Then i found Cornelius,he was William's Father. On stumbling onto a site on the internet, called Corfield port 5,I spotted Cornelius's name and his wife Ruth. So after not having one relative on my fathers side, not one i now found that there was a whole site of them on the internet.I find it quite amusing, when i think of it now.This was so amazing. Of course this could mean, i could copy all the details off that site,but i know that would be cheating.So i will still painstakingly research all of them individually myself.Then i also stumbled across a book called The Corfields The History of the Corfields from 1180 to present day, written by Justin Corfield, Wow not only a site, now a book, dont know what else could happen. My father Leonard is not with us now, but im sure even he would be amazed at what i have found.I would recommend to everyone, do your family tree, do it now, because you never ever know what you may uncover. Maybe,just maybe you may stumble across a site on the internet,with your family on, just like i did.
