Sharing information on names & locations

[Mike A]

Hi from Australia!

I'm new to this board, but have already had some terrific help from others researching Irish ancestors in Ballincollig, Cork, Ireland, so I thought I would reciprocate by offering any assistance I can to others here.

I am no expert, but have managed to get back to the late 1700s on many of the ancestry lines for myself and my wife. The list below gives the names/locations of those I have been researching. If any of the information I have can help someone else I am happy to share it.

And of course, if anyone has information that might help me, I would be happy to receive it! 

Regards
Mike

Hi Mike
Welcome to Rootschat
I do have Allsop(p)s but they are from Wirksworth Derbyshire and then Uxbridge, Middlesex - no Essex or Surrey connections as yet. If you haven't already, why not post your surnames here as well

Happy hunting
Jan

Thanks, Jan - I finally figured out how to include my surname interests under all my posts, but I'm still finding my way around the Roots-Chat site. Thanks for the link - I'll post them under the surnames list as you suggest.

(Haven't figured out yet how to include an avatar pic on my posts, though!).

I still didn't manage it following Bob's instructions but you might have better luck - it is clearly possible

Cheers Jan

Hi

I notice you have Jessimans from Scotland in your research. Where in Scotland are they from? The Jessimans I am starting to research come from Aberdeenshire. Any connection?
