The Common Room / Stumped of Liverpool
« on: Wednesday 21 August 19 08:27 BST (UK) »
Hi guys, thanks for your help in anticipation of that. I got my paternal family tree back to the early 1500s (not bad for an amateur, I thought?) but the Yin to my Yang has been I've fallen almost at the first hurdle on my maternal side.
I have got back to my Gx3 Grandfather, William JAMESON born 1810/11 at Liverpool and can get nothing further. I came to him via his son, Burgoyne (Berguine) JAMESON b.1851 Liverpool. William would seem to be a cabinet maker or joiner.
Would it be possible for anybody to help with a direction that I might have missed. I have done all the "common" sites, but - nothing.
Also, could anybody suggest where the unusual forename of Burgoyne may emanate from? He had a brother called Houghton. They both struck me as unusual and may provide a clue that I am missing.
