Does anyone have any information about the Daveneys of Colton, whom I'm led to believe were quite a locally famous family.
My side of the family were Burton Daveney born 1799 in Colton, who I believe became a Major General in the Army and fought in the Crimea. He had a son Charles Richmond who moved to Halifax and married Sarah Parker.
I'd like to know where I can find information about the family, or if anyone knows anything of the family, I'd love to hear from them.

I have Fitty,
I got a load on information from this site, which helped me trace the family back hundreds of years. I'm after more detail about the family though: if they were a prominent family, there might be other records or info which gives more information as to where they lived, what they did for a living, etc.

That's great information, thanks, Anjo, I found a will relating to John Deveney listed in 1851, he left everything to his brother Burton, who's my gggg gf. I might have to have a trip down to see what else I can find.
Thanks again,
Adam
