Channel Islands Lookup Requests / Re: John Connelly & Urisa/Urasa/Ursula *COMPLETED*

Hi Katrina, Great to meet you too! My research tells me Louisa married Joseph Chamberlain - had two children, Frederica and Adrian (married Lillian McIntyre). Am I on the right track and if so where do you fit in. I agree on the mystery! It was a chance thing finding a letter written to our Archives, asking for info on my grandfather's death. The writer was the wife of one of his siblings. She had died before we found the letter but we were able to track down one of her sons in Melbourne. He said he wasn't interested in all this but generously sent us what he was able to find. I'll do some digging Katrina and be in touch. My email is * Kind regards, Barbara

Such a small world! My grandfather, Walter Henry jnr had my sister, Mary Gillian and myself, Barbara.  Although  I have drawn a line under my research, I don't think it would take much to start again! We met Margaret Fatima (Maggie) in Texas, a grand daughter of John Francis and a daughter of James Francis. James married an Afghan and was disowned by the family for doing so - as was my grand father who married a Maori (a lovely lady). So I've formed certain opinions about the family and blame it all on the French side. Perhaps I'm wrong!! I'm a very healthy widow of 76 yrs and I've just moved to Taupo. I think Louisa is buried in Rockwood cemetery next to her parents?? Could be wrong. I'd love to hear about you too. Kindest regards, Barbara Brown nee Connelly.

Interested in you queries re Eurassa (note correct spelling as recorded in original baptism records in Cornwall Registry) and Jean Connelly. They were my great great grandparents.
