Hi I am looking for some help in locating the descendants of an EDWIN WILLIAM SANDYS
born in Roscommon Ireland. He left home in 1870 when about 15 and travelled in the south seas before finally settling in Tonga. He married BERNICE LATU and had 4 children WILLIAM, RICHARD, JANE and MARTHA. The last letter we have from him was in 1931. However someone contacted an uncle of mine for EDWIN'S birth certificate asa grandson wished to join the army and needed to prove his descent. Any info would be great. thanks. Cosmo
Hi Cosmo,
I'm trying to do a research on my dad's family history. His name is
(*)and had three brothers, Alexander, Edwin and Vincent. Their father was Richard and mother was Latai Mafile'o Sandys and grandfather Edwin Sandys. My dad was born on 6/8/1920 in Nomuka, part of the Haapai islands in Tonga. My father is still alive of the four brothers, and they all had to registered and served during WWII in Tonga. Hope you could point me in the right direction.
