The 1939 Register contains a number of (YOUR) Lander / Miller names in Wareham & Purbeck.     


It WILL be worth your while looking them up.

Hi Ray,
Many thanks, I’ve only come across this site last night.
I have a full(ish) tree with loads of info thanks, I was just offering help to anyone who may have any questions on the Purbeck Landers as my uncles/grandfather/great and Greatx2 grandfathers owned Landers Quarries at Langton Matravers. My grandad started researching 40+ years ago and tracked down a few in  US/Canada/Aus/NZ and mum is good friends with SM (hope you can work that one out, not fair to put a name)
I’m sure you have a copy of the Lander genealogy too?
Many thanks again Cuz :-)

I was just doing some research on my family tree that my grandfather (Joseph Horton Lander, 1942) helped me put together, & came across your post.
His father was Thomas Horton Lander, & so on & so forth HAHA.. but, I just wanted to say thank you everyone in this post who helped me put a lot of the pieces together! So cool to think some of you are my cousins :) sending love from the U.S. - K. Lander
