Welcome to the Bird, Corben, Dennis & Fairweather website broadly covering Norfolk, Suffolk, London and Essex. This is a work in progress and more will be added shortly. The Bird and Fairweather research has been undertaken by my father John Bird over the last 15 years or so and the Dennis research was compiled by my Uncle, Martin Dennis.  The Corben research is my own project and I have been conducting a one name study on the Corben name and its variants for some time.  My thanks to the many researchers who have contacted us and to the relatives that we have met over the internet - particularly to Sue Harrison, Colin Culpitt-Smith and Natasha Batsford (who's enthusiasm has re-ignited our interest in resolving the top of the Bird tree).  Please feel free to comment on this site - additional information and notification of any errors is always welcome!
