Hello Donna
Welcome to Rootschat!
Thank you so much for the information! I am amazed to have so much luck in such a short space of time.
I will have to get this new information sorted and pass it along to my aunt. I still find the whole Falklands thing mind-boggling (especially as I don't sail at all well!)
I wonder why Henry parted with his family? Maybe he couldn't cope with a settled life after his adventures.
I little knew when i visited the Great Britain on her return to Bristol that there was a kind of family connection with the ship. I will have to dig into that too!
I hope you enjoy Rootschat and that we can help you in return.
kind regards, Arranroots 
p.s. Happy Birthday for tomorrow Eliza and James

Hi, I have just found this link re the Powney family. My maternal Grandmother was the daughter of Eliza Powney born 2nd Sept 1868 in San Carlos Falkland Islands. I have her birth certificate and her twin James, I also have the marriage certificate for Henry Felix Powney and Eliza Shevland. Recently I obtained the death certificate for Eliza born 1868, it shows she was still in close contact to her father Henry Felix Powney as he registered her death in in Oct 1907 in Bristol, so he must have had some sort of care towards her then. My Nan was born in Foxham near Calne in 1902, she did say something about some sort of Spanish roots but was this to do with the Falklands and Argentina? Anyway I would love to hear from any other Powney connections. p.s I also have the death certificate for Eliza(nee Shevland) Powney showing she died on Sept 2 1868 on the day the twins were born.Bye for now Mattknow.

Hi Boatbuilder
Welcome to Rootschat! 
Sadly, I lost all the records I had on the SALTER family tree when my computer crashed a while ago! Despite that I think I have some paper records and of course many of them are preserved here, thanks to the power of the interweb thingy.
I just love "occupation gaucho" - that's a first for me!
You have inspired me to have a go at reconstructing (and backing up!) the family - many thanks indeed for sharing.
Kind regards, Arranroots

Gosh - just re-reading this and realise I didn't acknowledge Powney - welcome Powney and thanks for the information.
I guess you guys have more to talk about than just talking to me (I'm only distantly connected) - you must be cousins or something to each other!
I hope you all enjoy using the site.
I'm told that there is another researcher, Shann, who was in the chatroom but has yet to post on the boards - welcome Shann, I hope you find us here!
Kind regards, Arranroots
