The Common Room / Re: The surname AGAMBER
« on: Tuesday 10 January 12 17:21 GMT (UK) »
I am also related to Temperance and the rest of the gang!
Temperance married James Arrowsmith and had a son William who married Sarah Trenell.
Sarah and William had a son Thomas Arrowsmith, who had a daughter called Ellenor etc etc until my great grandfather and grandfather - by then with the surname Chesterman.
I've traced the Agombar name backwards as follows:
Jaques 1731
Jaques 1706
Pierre 1675 (He's the one who moved to England - I have him as from Amiens)
Jacob 1649 (He's the first of the St Quentin group and the spelling is Hagombart)
Jaques 1624
Jacob 1600 (although I don't trust the date)
Jehan 1564
Jacob 1540
Jehan 1519
And that's where it runs out.
Fascinating stuff. I found out the other day that one of my relatives used to live next door to my local after work pub in Holborn! Small world as they say.
