Would be interested in any Bibles with Townsend and related family information.

Would like to acquire Bible or receive a copy and/or transcript of family information.

Thanks

Lew

I'm in the US and my Townsend family line starts in the 1600s in Long Island NY - have never been able to get back to England.

But we do have several Townsend groups that connect back to locations in England and Ireland.  one group connects US Townsends with an Australian and to CastleTownshend Ireland and an Englishman.

If you have Townsend relatives would love to have them take a look at www.TownsendSociety.org and I'd love to convince male Townsends to be DNA tested to see what links might show up.

Tell me more.

Thanks

Lew
