Glamorganshire Lookup Requests / Re: MICHAEL family Swansea - Jewish BDM records 1740-1880
« on: Monday 12 March 12 21:22 GMT (UK) »
Hi, I am descended from a Michael family from the Mumbles/Swansea. I don't know if we are entirely seperate from this line or if we have links but would love to see if we can find out. Any help would be appreciated. My line is via a George Michael born Oystermouth/Mumbles in 1854, died 1903 in the Mumbles Lifeboat disaster. I have his parents as Thomas Michael born approx 1810 and Margaret Brown. I believe Thomas' father was a John Michael born approx 1791 ish and John's father I believe to be William Michael born approx 1760..although I have very little data to 100% confirm John and William as Thomas Michael's father and grandfather so this may not be accurate.
Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. The Michael family was very established in the Mumbles along with several other big Mumbles surnames such as Gammon and Ace. Several history books refer to the Michael's arriving in the area by 1800 and imply they came form somewhere else but as to where I do not know and I would be intrigued to see if we have a connection to the Jewish Michael's of Swansea.
Many Thanks
Angiy Michael
