Cousin built house

understandinguncertainty.org was produced by the Winton programme for the public understanding of risk based in the Statistical Laboratory in the University of Cambridge. The aim was to help improve the way that uncertainty and risk are discussed in society, and show how probability and statistics can be both useful and entertaining.
Many of the animations were produced using Flash and will no longer work.
Having lived in Middlesex, various parts of London and Hertfordshire, in Lincolnshire and Kent we moved to Watford in 1975 to be near our daughter who had moved there for work reasons. Like me, my mother was born and brought up in Edmonton, Middlesex, but her family came from west Hertfordshire and into Buckinghamshire. A cousin had lived in Watford all her life. After we had been in the house we bought for a couple of years, my cousin asked if we knew that the house we lived in was built by a cousin of ours, surname Puddephat. In 2003 we moved, at the invitation of the same daughter, to live next to her in St. Michael's village, St. Albans. She has since discovered that a Redding (my mother's maiden name) and a Puddephat signed a petition to Parliament from St. Michael's Village in 1641.
