Grint

Hi
I'm researching brothers who were killed in action during World War 1, both whom lived in Cornforth County Durham and both of whom served with Durham Light Infantry.
They are Fred and Robert Grint, sons of George Grint, born in Norfolk. George was the son of Thomas and Ellen Grint
What I would dearly love to find is a photograph of Fred and Robert. With Grint being a relatively unusual name and kinship likely to have been retained in Norfolk I wonder if anyone may be related and by some remote possibility have a photograph in their possession. All links here in County Durham, have drawn a blank.
I live in hope.

Hi Jay,
Not that I'm aware of, however I'll be meeting up with a friend who is connected next week so I'll ask.

Hi
The Grint brothers are my dad's great uncles and he has been trying to track down a photo for a couple of years. Is there any chance of getting a copy of it.
Thanks

Hi
Robert Grint's service number is 74114 and Fred's is 22/181 - both DLI. Luckily both their service records have survived and make interesting reading.

Hi
The Grints in my family do orginate from Norfolk, but from the research done so far, I can't see any connection with the names you gave.
Thanks

Bob
give me some names and details and I will see if there are any matches, they originated from Amsterdam and I have a will dated 1460 from
N. burlingham. The Grints seems to have spread with the Herring fishing industry in the 1940/50 's

Hi
The information I have is based on census returns - haven't got round to anything apart from that yet.
I have George Grint - born 1863 - Ellingham, Norfolk.
Thomas Grint - from census records year of birth varies between 1830 and 1837 - Latimer, Norfolk.
Jeremiah Grint - born approx. 1789 - Kirby Cane, Norfolk.
Thanks

My gt. Grandfather George Grint b 1848 d 1925
was married to Amy Easter who had
sons Walter, George, Fred, Barney and Charles my grandfather
daughters Clara , Rachel, and Lily
and lived at Strumpshaw
George my Gt. Grandfather was the son of Thomas Grint b 1809 who married Mary Ann Fuller in 1837 at Lakenham and lived at Norton Subcourse
they also had sons Arthur b 1856, Thomas b 1836, William b 1837 and Charlesb 1847. also daughters Harriet b 1840 and Adelade b 1832
note it seems 2 children out of wedlock is why they married away from their village
