Hi Phil,
I found you on My Heritage a few years back, but I haven't used it in a long time. At the time I found a connection between our families. Now, I am not sure who. My 2 x grt grandfather was George Williams - born: 1849 England. 1863 at 14 was a seaman. In 1871 he was on the SS Gloucester. Landed in Maryborough, Qld and decided he wasn't going back. 'French Leave'. Married: Bridget Mary Ryan. Died 15 Oct, 1942 in Rockhampton, Qld, Aust. I hope you can help. Kind Regards, Leisa

Hi Leisa,
I'm afraid we don't have the names you mention in our database so perhaps the connection was with another member of our respective families.
Unfortunately, I suffered a hard disk failure recently and if I had a record of our earlier connection it is now gone. MyHeritage does not appear to have a record of our earlier conversation either. Have you looked in your 'Sent messages' folder?
I have requested membership of your tree and, if you accept it, I will try to check out any possible connections.
Best regards,
Phil.
I am researching the Trigg family, and a Thomas Trigg born around the turn of 1800 in Westbury on Severn. I find however that there are three people named Thomas Trigg registered on the parish record then viz–
Thomas Trigg christened 1799 born to William and Elizabeth Trigg
Thomas Trigg christened 8th February 1801 born to Jonathan and Frances Trigg
Thomas Trigg christened on 15th November 1801 born to William and Eleanor Trigg.
I can understand that we can probably discount the earlier one but may I ask you please how you determined which of the remaining two Thomas’s is your man i e the son of Jonathan and Frances. There were no burials of a child called Thomas Trigg. Thank you.
Hello
I am the Granddaughter of Edwin Lampard’s daughter Alice Kate who married Charles Dawkins.
My tree is Dawkins Tree on Ancestry – Ericaecous
I live in Dinton five miles east of Tisbury.
My aim is to locate the address in West Tisbury my Grandmother was born and married. I already know about Woodhouse Semley
I am sadly short of old family photos due to a fire years ago
Can you help? Thank you

I hold my hands up … I ‘borrowed’ the information from http://trees.ancestry.co.uk/tree/65113382/family?fpid=34129719461

Hi Heather,
All the information I have about the Lampard family is already on the website. Hopefully, someone reading this might be able to help though.
Good luck with your research.
Phil.
