Cork / Ann BARRY b.1828 Fermoy
« on: Tuesday 17 February 09 21:46 GMT (UK)  »
Folks

My whole lineage appears to English apart from Ann BARRY. This intrigues me and if I get some leads from you helpful folks I plan to travel to the Cork area with my bike and tent in the summer.

It looks like she was born in Fermoy 1828 and travelled to England around 1851/52 with baby daughter Mary Ann.

Barry is a common surname in the area so someone must be researching this line. Please get in touch.

Shropshire / WOODVINE - Shrops/Staffs
« on: Friday 13 February 09 07:21 GMT (UK)  »
Im making some progress on this line  - which is the maiden name of my maternal grandmother - still going strong at 94.

Woodvine seems to be a relatively rare name but I cant piece together the jigsaw.

Ive got Joseph Henry Woodvine b. Abt 1805 Wolstanton and his father John Woodvine (no information).

Joseph Henry's son appears to be James b. 1838 in Wem, Shrops.

Any others with a similar interest?
Or can you confirm the information in this post?
Thanks in advance.

Travelling People / EVANS - Boat family Stone, STAFFS
« on: Thursday 05 February 09 07:58 GMT (UK)  »
This is a little vague so apologies from the outset.

It seems that my ggrandmother was Susan Elizabeth EVANS b.abt 1890 and came from the Boat family Evans from Stone, STAFFS or thereabouts.

I've come up against a real block on this and even my 94 year old grandmother cannot throw much light upon it.

Any thoughts?

Buckinghamshire / WALTON - Waddesdon/Winchendon
« on: Wednesday 04 February 09 20:24 GMT (UK)  »
My family name is WALTON and so far with a little help from Helen O'Horer Ive got back to Thomas Walton b.1723 Waddesdon.
There are WALTON's in neighbouring Upper/Lower/Nether Winchendon going back as far as 1500 and some in the 1300's but I can't make any positive link.

Anyone got any info or ideas on how to take it further?
Thanks in advance from a first poster.
David WALTON
