Hi Lewy
Last I wrote to you was about the Post family in 2005.  I wrote under the name Langham.
Have you managed to find out any further information and can I ask you how you are connected to this family - if at all?
Regards

US Lookup Requests / Re: Where to start! HELP!!

George Henry Draper Post was my great uncle so I'm extremely interested in any authenticated information or pictures you may have. I, too, have a tree of some 200 Posts and they appear to be two main branches: one from Connecticut which has been traced back to England to a Thomas Post (NEHGS) and one from Long Island which goes back to one Richard Post in about 1640. I've not been able to find any reliable information about this line before 1640. The book "The Post Family" published in 1905 by Marie Caroline de Trobriand Post has been largely discredited before then.
I don't know why my branch of the Posts went to Paris in the 1840s or thereabouts but I know they came to England in about 1884 and were Naturalised during the years from 1899 to 1916.
I'd really like to share any authenticated information you may have with any I have that you might find useful. My email address is
