My line actually goes through Gregory's brother Howson, so our common link is Benjamin.  From Howson it goes through his son Howson Edward - Frank Adain - Edwin Franklin - Howson Edward (my father) - Me.

Hope that helps!

It blows my mind to think of all the history and the things our ancestors did and here we are, meeting distant family from around the world!  I’m very excited to see where this takes me!

Thank you Trish and Flick! The rest of my family here in the US will be so excited!  I’ll make another post so we can exchange info more easily.

Greetings from the US!

In a quest to continue the family history research my father began many years ago, I happened upon your post.  From afar, it appears that maybe you are a descendent of Gregory Willmore who married Jane Torr and is the son of Benjamin Willmore (Gregory and Jane ended up in South Africa).  If this is the case, we are from the same line of Willmores!  If not, at the very least, you might have some additional information beyond what I have.  My father's research ends at Benjamin's father John Willmore.  From what I can gather from this forum you started, it seems like your information goes farther back.  I would love to discuss this with you if you have some time.

Sincerely,
Edwin Willmore
