Hi
I am a newbie to this site and started ancestry research a few years ago. I have found that my father's family came from Wiltshire. I have managed to trace the Painter name back a number of generations and they were mostly around Purton, Lydia Tregoze, Swindon for a several generations. My grandfather and a few of his siblings migrated to Australia in the early 1900s which is where I live, his other siblings remained in England, some I believe in the Surrey area. I also have Scott family roots from Ireland through my father's mother as well as Behl from Germany. From my mother's side the Flacks came from around Essex and the Vollmers from Wurtemburg in Germany. So I am focusing on England and Ireland at present.
