  • Notes 
    • William and Elizabeth were living during a period of time when an Abbey was to be built in Soham. The monks wanting to build this Abbey needed a certain stone which was only found in Scotland. William requested the Kidd families in Scotland quarry this unique stone. The stone was delivered by using wooden barges to float the stone to Soham. The Abbey still stands in Soham.
