This is my family crest. My father has a ring with this crest, and it has been in our family for a very long time. If anyone would like to find out more or discuss this, please cantact me.

I could be wrong, but it is my understanding that these coats of arms and crests are passed down through the male line.  Hence only a STEPHENSON would be entitled to the crest.

I believe I am a descendent of Robert and Mabel Carr.  My information is that Robert and Mabel had 6 children - James born 1779, George born 1781, Robert born 1785, Eleanor born 1784, John born 1789 and Anne born 1792.  I am descended from John who (according to my records) married Grace Henderson. They had 6 children - 3 of them are John, Hannah and Annie.  I am a descendent of John who married Esther Thompson. Their daughter was Annie and she married George Wootton and they are my great great grand parents.

Our family also has this supposed connection to George, rocket fame however have been unable to establish link.  My Stephenson family lived in Duns Berwickshire from approx 1790 until 1918 which is the last known link I have been able to establish.  There is a connection to the Bertram family also. Please let me know if you think there is a connection.

Sorry I dont have any info on James Stephenson.   The information I have I got from an elderly aunt who is no longer with us.  I have info on James sister Eleanor who married John Wingate - their descendants were John, Jane, Edith, Minnie, Ernest, Bert and Fernly. Happy Hunting

I would like to see the family tree of George Stephenson if possible as I am researching my family's supposed connection to it.
Paul said he had a pretty good tree of all the Stephenson family and this would be of great interest to me. How do i go about getting it please?

Hi Jeantee
Sorry I cant help you - I dont have any info on George Stephenson's line.  Only that he was born in 1781 and his parents were Robert Stephenson and Mabel Carr.  I would also like to see Pauls family tree - not sure how to get his email address.   

Cheers
