Message for Alpheus
Just noticed this one---rather old now ( 8 January 2007 ).
I have extensive knowledge of Noah Mullins, his family, siblings, descendants and ancestors. I am descended from his younger brother Henry and inherited some information and clues. During the last five years I have researched the family thoroughly and have details of Noah's parents, his paternal grandparents and great grandparents.
I would be happy to share any information with you and perhaps as a starter could give you a family tree from his parents down to all his sibling's children.
It would be too unwieldy for general posting----perhaps you could communicate via the personal channels.
If your Great Great Grandad was John ( whose last occupation was the Publican at the Ashill Inn ) we share common ancestors---Noah's parents William Mullins and Rebecca Lane who are your Great Great Great Great Grandparents and my Great Great Great Grandparents so we are a generation removed!
I have a massive index system which has the names of several hundred Mullins who are all related to us. The family originated in the 1740s in West Dorset moving gradually into East Devon and South East Somerset where they lingered for about 80 years before many dispersed to all points of the compass. The West Country is still inundated with Mullins but of course many are only tenuously connected with us.
Incidentally the Yorkshire Mullins are not connected with us.
