A great site, I found it whilst searching for my Gypsy Allens and Loveridges. They travelled Wiltshire, Hampshire, Oxford, Worc, Gloucester and have been found in Durham, Devon, London and goodness knows where else. I have not been lucky on this site, this time but will certainly return, because you never know what will turn up. Kind regards Ann.

Great Site--the anticipation was high, but once again I struck out! Looking for John HAMS,wife Susannah (married Newington abt 1804) son-George Hams -maybe sister Christina and unknown other siblings- all came to America about 1835 from Hythe/Folkstone area. Settled in Wisconsin abt. 1845 after short stay in New York. Mystery of the year (for us) How are John / George HAMS related to Henry Hams ? Any inform. or suggestions on who we contact to try and find some church records, etc. would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for a fun visit! Sharon
