Carmarthenshire, Pembrokeshire and Lancaster here.... on my paternal side. Also found relatives in New Zealand, and still trying to track a few down in Oz and US (cousins which I have photos of from childhood & later on, stories from 'Nam, etc but nothing factual such as places, dates).

Put to one side is another paternal line who emigrated to Ireland, because I've always been made to believe my father's side were originally Scots not Irish which has completely thrown me. And when my dad casually mentioned last week 'have you found the ones in Canada?' .. let's not go there. He wasn't kidding when he kept saying his family was 'big' 

Thankfully the maternal side seems to be less globally- ambitious, are smaller families and are located in south Wales...to date anyway...just wish they weren't all seemingly Jones or Bevan. When I gave up work I thought geneology would be a pastime not a full-time mission lol.

We are spreading out!

My Nans family were from Renfrew, Lanark, in Scotland and Originally hailed from Ireland not sure where yet. And emigrated to places such as Canada, australia etc. Whilst my Grandads family were from Edinburgh Midlothian, Burnt Island, Aberdeen etc.  Berwick, Jedburgh, Kirkcaldy pronounced Kirkcoddie my nan always insisted I spake it correctly.

My husbands family are from Portsmouth, Portsea Island etc. and they (some have also emigrated to places like Australia and New Zealand.  Another Branch origins were Belgium and possibly Holland or Denmark.

Hi, this is my first post.  So glad I stumbled across this site via a google search for my ancestors.  I am mainly concentrating on Ontario, Canada as my great great aunt moved there in the 1920s but also a lot closer to home, Muckamore, Co. Antrim, N Ireland, where my mum's side of the family lived from around 1898.

On my Grparents 1909  Marriage Registration says  he's born in  Barry,Wales  and the son of : Adrian REINE of England .What area at least would narrow it down....and Mary ?US?EN, no country mentioned....German was spoken in the home according to the 1911 Census.  Nothing has so far been found to verify any of this. My brick wall..Tehn Glasgow, Scotland thankfully with its well informational certificates has County Armagh/ and I do know County Down, County Derry   and County Antrim, Belfast. just to mix it up. This  leaves my mother's Acadian French side which is very user friendly and and  County Monaghan  gtgtgrandparents' 1840 move to Canada.
France/Belgium/Ireland/Wales/Scotland/England/Isle of Man/Europe as far as I know. This could change at any moment.

I am new to this website - hopefully I am doing the correctly.

I noticed on the Surname Index that Starshine is looking for Arthur Oscar Leigh from Maccelsfield 1880'sish. 

My greatgrandfather - Wilfrid A Leigh had a brother named Arthur Oscar (two boys Wilfrid and William.  I have pictures of all three.

Hopefully this is Starshine and the same family.
