Kent / Re: surname FINNIS
« on: Tuesday 04 April 17 20:53 BST (UK) »
Hi BettyofKent - re your post last summer (just seeing it now) and the plaques at St Leonard, Hythe ... I'd be very interested in seeing photographs. This is part of my FINNIS family, although not my direct line.

I had stumbled upon it, thanks, Tony - didn't realize it went on for 18 pages, though! Guess what I'll be doing this weekend? Thank heavens for computers - imagine writing all that out by hand!!!

Thanks, Tony. Going through that thread, I'm finding snippets relating to my own line which is most helpful. About to construct a giant 'tree' of Finnis families!

Kent Lookup Requests / East Langdon Parish Registers - FINNIS
« on: Tuesday 28 March 17 16:30 BST (UK) »
Having taken the Ancestry DNA test, I'm trying to prove that my maternal ancestor Robert FINNIS (who married Ann SPICER in 1750 Dover) is part of the East Langdon Finnis family. I've seen researchers suggest that Robert was born in 1728 East Langdon, but a parish register entry of a baptism would make me feel much happier! If someone can help, I'd really appreciate it!

Sussex Lookup Requests / Re: Look-Up for Charles CUNNINGHAM of HOUGHTON 1901 please
« on: Friday 04 November 16 13:48 GMT (UK) »
I am descended from Robert Cunningham through his daughter Caroline, who married my two times great grandfather Henry Pope of Heyshott. The Popes stayed in England - my father (whose mother was a Lena Pope) brought our family to Canada in 1966.
Robert was as gunner with the Royal Horse Artillery - the Waterloo Medal roll puts him in Lt. Col. Gardiner's E Troop. Robert enlisted at age 18, in 1797 which would put his birth about 1779 - and he served for just short of 24 years. After that, he moved his family south, to Sussex.
Would like to PM you.

Interested in chatting with CheshireSteve who posted: I think I have managed to locate the source of the Cunningham's in Houghton back to Barony, Lanarkshire.
Robert Cunningham is my three times great grandfather. And there the line ends...until now?
