Hi my family From 1860's Dangerfield Stanley daughters Mertie rummered old Doc Reynolds had a daughter nav Ruth married Eziah Wells who's dad was Heziaka Wells . I am a Stanley & Eziah son Lyle married my moms sister whom are Lee's.. Now when my mother first got married 1949 old Clare's was a Wells her father was old Nelson Wells married to a Buckland juval.. Here in the US

Hi Bowdie

Do you have any info on "old Doc Reynolds"? One of my relatives – Sanspi Reynolds or Smith – is supposed to have travelled from England to the US in the 1880s to live with members of her family there. But I haven't been able to track her down so far in US records. What state were your Stanleys and Wells in?

Many thanks.

My great-grandfather was a Wells from the New Forest. He was sent out to Australia as a ten year old by himself as part of their child migrant labour scheme. If anyone has stories about their relatives sons being taken away from them circa 1900- 1910, I would like to hear from them.

Hi,
I am hoping these names mean something to someone, and I have come to a standstill on a part of my tree.

My Great Grandmother was Unity Holland 1892 - 1979, her birth was registered in Yeovil, Somerset, but her baptism was in South Petherton.

Her Mother was Esther Jeffry 1852 - 1929 born in St Austell, and her Father Joseph Holland 1841 - 1905, possibly born in St Johns Common, Sussex.

I am struggling to confirm Esther's parents, I found a birth for an Esther Jessie Jeffry's in 1852, with a Mothers Maiden Name of Wells.  Possibly a Jane Wells, and her Father possibly being Thomas Jeffry, (no marriage record found).  But, interestingly, I have found a marriage record between a Jane Wells (alias Jane Cooper) and a John Small, in Jersey.  Showing Jane's Father as a Benjamin Wells.

Do any of these names mean anything to anyone?  Any help or guidance would be hugely appreciated.
