I'm just starting with England as we found a post on here that may link some family over in England. Super excited.

Sorry, I'm in the 'not enough boxes to tick' group. Searching direct lines to New Zealand via Australia from England, Scotland and Ireland, and to Canada via USA from England, Wales, Scotland and Ireland. Then there are interesting lateral lines that take me all over the place.
I have had great help from RootsChatters. It's a wonderful system!
Palfrey - Radnorshire, Wales
Odell - Ontario, Canada
Gilmour - Newton Mearns, Renfrewshire, Scotland
Hare - Ipswich, Suffolk, England and Limerick, Ireland
Price - Antrim, Down, (now Northern) Ireland
Freeman - Waterford and Tramore, Ireland
Taylor - Taunton, Somerset, England
Helyar - Clifton, Bristol, England

Where ever it takes me. British Empire with Ceylon being a place I have put many hours into. British Guiana, British Columbia, British West Hartlepool. British settlers in New Mexico, USA. Places I have difficulty with - Ireland and Wales. The latter caused by lets say Jones. Which Jones family is mine?

After some time off I'm doing Ireland and Scotland as the going back this particular line they went from Scotland to Ireland and then bounced around different parts of Ireland.
Borlands from Scotland, Hiltons from England & Platts from England at this stage. Have others to look for as well at some stage :)
