Hi Christine,
Well, I've managed to trace my lineage back to George Wombwell, of the famous Wombwell Menagerie Circus; he was my great great grandfather's brother.  My question for anyone is, was George married, and did he have any children?  Thanks!  Terri Lund

Hello, I am researching my family and my mother's maiden name was Wombwell. Her grandfather James Wombwell was born in 1827 in England, and died here in the US.  I keep hitting a brick wall and cannot find when James came to the US or any more info about him.  My grandmother had a book at one time about the Wombwell Circus, and told us that her great great grandfather was a lion tamer in the circus, but book has disappered since her death.  Any info would be greatly appriciated.  I have found info on George Wombwell's menagerie, but can't find if he was married or had any children.  Thanks!  Terri
