I have found a second marriage for my ancestor OWEN/BLAKE which explains why I have not been able to find them previously under that name. Solved a huge mystery!!

Thanks so much for this wealth of information.

What a joy to find this site, revealing a wealth of family history that we thought was lost to time! My mother was overcome with emotion to learn of all of our many previously unknown ancestors, and see many of her long-gone but beloved relatives names come to life on the page!

Thank you for the epic amount of work and research that must have gone into this labor of love website!

Thank you so much for this wealth of information. I have been helping a friend with her tree and only yesterday found a marriage that had eluded the family researcher for 9 years! Imagine my joy at being able to provide that piece of the jigsaw. Please keep up the good work.

Hello! Looking for any descendants of John and Sarah (Overton) Whitehead. I have started adding to the tree as I have quite a bit of information! Let me know how you're connected!

Hello Paul
Looks like an interesting resource. I am trying to verify some of my wife SA ancestors that began with HC De Meillon (b. London 1800) who was dropped off in CT in 1823 from a Royal Navy ship due to illness. There are gaps in his SA family I am trying to breach as they married existentially with ancestors of the Dutch and German settlers.

I have done extensive research on Sarah Cadle nee Hornblow and have a website dedicated to her,
Sarahs Children

Id be happy to hear from any Hornblow family.

I have been searching for my father's side of the family for years. sadly he passed away when I was very young and my mom had some information. To finally trace my roots all the way back to Benjamin Patrick was awesome. I have a real sense of who I am now.
Thank you so much for this site and all the hard work that has gone into it.

My great great great great uncle [gunmaker from 36 Piccadilly london] settled in Grahamstown 1820.

Thanks for all those that have submitted information and to Paul for this very informative site. I have found out a massive amount about my ancestors.

My fathers family left Liverpool on the ship "John" as part of the Stanley Party in 1820. The site as provided so much information and is very much appreciated.
