Ships lists FROM the UK are available on Find My Past.

You can search the indexes free of charge.

I wonder if there would be any records of them arriving in Italy- with more detailed info?

Perhaps you should start a new thread on the Europe board and link it to this one- maybe someone lives in Italy and would know the answer  :)

Thank you Carol, I will get something together soon and post a new tread through there.

I didn't know much about the Find My Past site, but I am thinking that it might have a lot more information than ancestry.com.  has been able to provide me.

Hi,

I have just started to look into my family tree.  A fascination with my grandmother's maiden name "pieraccini" stated it off.  she was Constance Maud...

Asking my Mother, who is 90, about the Woodhouse connection she remembers that Elsie Woods' maiden name was woodhouse.

Have a look at the 1911 census for James Pieraccini and there you will find Elsie Woodhouse.

I am aware that other members of my family are looking into the family tree, a distant cousin into Luton who has posted pictures on to his site of CMP and another in Australia; Robyn Battrick.

There is also a guy I do not know at www.whatfunnyhat.com who also notes the Pieracinnis'.

Have fun....Paul

Thanks Paul for your message. 

Constance Maud was the sister to my great grandfather Peter Pieraccini.  Most of the photo's and information online has come from my tracing the family and have sent to others that were tracing the family tree. I still have further photos to upload and also try and work out who others are in a lot of photo's/negatives.  You can find my tree under ancestry.com  rawlings/pieraccini for any information that might help you.  I have a fair bit of information too on Elsie Wood (nee Woodhouse) too.  It is just uncovering other information that I sometimes hit a wall.   My assumption is that Elsie when to live with the Pieraccini's due to her bother becoming ill, whom died a few years later, but I don't think we will ever truely know if my assumption is correct. 

There is still a son alive today of Edith Pieraccini, Constance Maud's sister.  He is still in the Luton area.  Seems the Pieraccini line has had some long living genes.  My own grandmother (Peter's daughter) passed away aged 91.     

I am taking a small break from researching at the moment, can become very time consuming, but will be back on track sometime next month.

Enjoy the wonders of finding out about the family, I know I have been.

Vanessa.

Hi

New to this site but not to the forums. I note that on your list of relatives you have Bensons in Australia.  I'm wondering if we are related as we have a Jane Woodhouse married a Thomas Benson back in the 1600's?

Hi Barkrelsatthepoint,

I'm unsure of whether there is a connection or not.  I have Benson's on one family tree (my mother's side) and Woodhouse through marriage on another tree (my father's side)   I don't have any marriages between Benson's to Woodhouse, however I have not gone back that far.

I have a tree on ancestry.com if you wish to see.  Under 66ness.

Hi Ness66,

I would not be sure either, however our Woodhouse connections come from Jane nee Woodhouse who married we think a William Benson - they had two sons William and Thomas. Her brother was Hyman Woodhouse and her sister or William's was Emit Cliffe. When 'William' the elder died Jane married John Cowltas.  This as far as I've gone with this and it comes from a will held by the Whitby Museum and Phil Society.

That said my interest also lies  with the myth handed down through the Benson generations that we're related to the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Arch married Mary Woodhouse his niece so the plot thickens.

We're in Australia and I noted that you have connections with Bensons in OZ. We're from Dr Barker Benson landed here 1841 and our story is on the Benson forum using same name as here. It's quite a read and found four relatives as a result.

If any of this rings a bell let me know otherwise it was good to have a chat which is what it is all about. Keep up the good work.

Cheers barkrels.

Thanks for your reply and the information.  But I am pretty sure I can't find a connection to the Benson's in my tree, not that I have gone back very far.  If I do ever come across a connection though, I will let you know.

I wish you luck on your research.

Vanessa (Ness66)

I can answer many of your questions about the Woodhouse family you are trying to trace. Can you reply to me so I can see you are still active on this site and we can start a discussion. I am also in contact with my cousin who is the daughter of Nelson Woodhouse.
