One Name Studies: T to Z / Re: UREN (All)
« on: Monday 05 April 10 01:18 BST (UK)  »
My family is located in Washington State and most have been in the Pacific NW for many years. It seems that many of the Urens migrated to the West Coast. Is that your blog? Because I was actually looking at this earlier today for the first time.
What is your grandmothers name? Mine is Marguerite Winola U'Renn. I think her father Percival was the first to use 2 NN's in the surname. Why, I don't know. My gr. gr. grandfather Andrew James Uren was in Seattle because I believe all of his children were born there.
I remember my grandmother saying that there were relatives in both California and Alaska.

Glad we have made a connection!

ltlgto .... don't know where you or your side of the family are and you didn't list following Stephen who headed to California.   You still might be interested in this family foto in San Francisco 1915.  Sorry for my grandmothers use of Grandpa and Grandma to describe the foto

Also interesting the Denny connection in Seattle.  Our family lived in Seattle for many years and the women would spend winters in Seattle around the turn of the century while the men toughed it out in the Alaska gold rush
