Travelling People / Re: Boswell Help Please!!

I just found it fascinating that the surname is so connecting to the "traveller" way of life ~ even as far afield as here in South Africa!! Good luck with the research and the book!

Kind regards
Patricia

I'm not sure if anyone has made a "leap" to South Africa on the Boswell "quest"?? They are a 3rd generation circus family (that is as far as I have been informed) ~ it just seems to me to be interesting that this seems to hold similarities when making comparisons?!

Kind regards

Would you like me to see if there are any entries in the Telephone for Stammers in the PE area?  Perhaps she had male siblings?

Regards

Ancestral Family Tree DNA Testing / DNA question
« on: Tuesday 16 September 14 14:54 BST (UK)  »
I have traced a "slavegirl" in my family tree but because of the "scandal" attached to it she hasn't been noted as the mother of my forebears ~ how far back in "time" will a DNA test trace ones connections (particularly to other countries)??

South Africa / Re: Beaumont-Thomas

Hello Catzpaw ~ The Claude Marsden Beaumont Thomas that you are refering to is my husband's grandfather. His surname, however, was Thomas and not Beaumont-Thomas as I think yours might be?!! Do let me know if I have understood your surname correctly? I am always keen to make "connections" to other trees! Kind regards Patricia
