Hi,  I have been trying to do a little bit of family research, although technically, whilst I loved this man dearly, he was not strictly a blood relation.  My step grandfather, was named Emeric Dilworth de St Dalmas, we called him uncle Dal.  He was a Count, but had come to Britain from Canada, he was French Canadian .  He married my maternal grandmother, sometime after the war.  He had a son, Tony,  but I do not know much about him.   He was a wonderful person, a true gentleman,  I have pictures of him, but he sadly died at a grand old age of 90 something in 1984.   I would be absolutely fascinated to know if there was a connection.    So, please, if any one sees this post, please please get back to me,  many, thanks,

Henry P.E. De St Dalmas was living in the home I grew up in (8 Dacre Park Lee London - now. no 115) as  a retired evangelist preacher with his wife Sarah in 1891. Before that he was in Wellington and before that Dartmouth. He died in Barnstaple in 1904.
