Hi, I found this website which shows the most Windmills are in Somerset which confirms other references I have read about the surname Windmill. I am trying to trace my family tree back from my father Richard Bennet Windmill born in Pontypridd Wales 1925. We emigrated to New Zealand in 1960 when I was 2 so I don't have much else to go on. Any Info would be greatly appreciated.
regards Robert Windmill

Looking on freeBMD your father's birth shows your grandmother's surname as Rogers.  June quarter 1925

Also in Pontyprid the marriage of

Eginald G Windmill to Violet E Rogers December quarter 1922 Pontyprid

I suspect that the marriage is a mistranscription because a further search reveals the birth of Reginald George Windmill in Cardiff registration district September quarter 1899.

The mistranscription is confirmed when the original image of the marriage index is viewed

Hi Robert,  I have just read your email in RootsChat.com, saying that you are trying to trace details of Richard Bennett Rogers.  Well....   I am your uncle,  Roy Windmill, surprise!   And I am also doing some family research.  And I have got some info on the Rogers family, the Windmills and the the Jenkins.   So let me know where you are in the search,  and in the mean time I'll dig out what details I have.
                            All the best,    Uncle Roy

I see you are doing the Windmill tree for Staffordshire family.

I'm trying to find the Windmill in Wing. Buckingham England.
They also drop the D in the 1880
I'm all so looking for the Winmill's in Northamptonshire England.
So if you know any one Else that's working on this 2 family's That would be great.
