Buckinghamshire / Looking for Besio Family in Buckland Wharf W Aylesbury Buckinghamshire 1930's
« on: Sunday 17 November 13 00:21 GMT (UK)  »
My GG Uncle ( Nelson Paul Besio) born Sept 1891 Hogansburg, Franklin County, New York USA ( although he might say that he was Canadian). I believe served in the British Military during WWI. This is the only information I can find about him. Nelson Besio Star, Victory Medal, British War Medal service year 1914-1920 Service Location Europe WWI.
I also have 2 letters written to my grandmother in the 1930's indicating he had a son James 10 years old at that time. Family lore says that his wife's last name was Baker and that he took that surname in UK. His wife writes in one of the letters that their son spends time with her family in London in the summer.
The letters return address is this Buckland Wharf W Aylesbury Buckinghamshire. If this sounds like something anyone can help me with I would really appreciate it.

Merionethshire / Re: Barnett LLanaber

I went to Barmouth Wales in May 2010 looking for Richard Barnett as my client and friend is his 3rd great granddaughter. Richards father William did own the hotel in Barmouth. We actually were able to see some documentation of this at the archives in Dolgellau. We have photos as the hotel looks today and as it did when William Barnett owned it. Also bills for rabbits delivered for meals.
My friends family handed down the story that Richard and his wife were killed on The Royal Charter. Although I can find no evidence to prove this.
I have a copy of William Barnett's will also many birth and death certificates, pictures and short movies of William Barnett's grave. A wonderful man from England was in the church yard when we were searching and came back and cleared a 50+ foot swath all the way to his grave. It had been covered by years and years of growth.
You have all given me information that I had not known before today. Thank you. I am very happy to share anything I have with everyone. Contact me at (*). I would love to hear from you.
Her line in New York State is as follows (Nan)~ Florence Ingersoll Jones~Mary Jane Francis Ingersoll~Ellen Lloyd Barnett Francis~ Richard Lloyd Barnett~ William Barnett.
