Oh dear. At the moment 511 and I think 110 different surnames. The oldest being 1694, but I think a little more research will take me back to 1668 and may be further. Of course all this older research is from parish records, fortunately all my people come from Middlesex, so getting to the London Metropolitan archives isn't any problem, and Bucks which is served by Aylesbury also equally accessible. |

Hi Juliana! I've got 429 people and 130 different surnames in my tree, but they're not all on the GR tree, as some people seem to object to the inclusion of families of those who have married into another family. CB >|< |

Yes and then in addition to the 511 I could add all the people who are currently alive, that would probably be about another 200. I have to say is a pain in the bum having two trees, one that you can upload here and the other for private consumption. |

Hiya everyone! I include everyone that has any connection, hee hee! Just in case, they lived in the same area or were close!! Its so difficult with some of them though... got them from Italy, Cornwall, Ireland, Scotland, Jamaica, Barbados, USA and possibly some from Oz!!!! Juliana Ps Kerry they will come I promise, let me know if you need a hand with anything - fresh eyes and all that! |

Juliana, I can see why things are so difficult for you! You don't have relations in Harrow Middlesex, do you? My great-grandfather was William Martin! |

Juliana | Report | 24 Jan 2005 19:34 |
oh possibly, hee hee - William is a 'family' name - don't think any of them were from Harrow though (I wish - would love to meet some living rellies!!) xxx |

Have about 800 in mine but that includes everyone who is slightly connected by marriage etc, from census records etc. You'd be surprised how often those slightly related ones lead to the "real" ancestors. Don't have that many on here, only tend to put the ones that I'm 99% sure of on here. Maggy |

Juliana in answer to your question, its taken me just over a year to build the amount i have, but its been with help of contacts as well, a tree is too big to do alone, i have 1555 on here, if i add just one of my contacts it will grow to over 4000. I am working on bmd census & wills etc for all at the moment as i like to gain as much info as i can about each individual. Happy Hunting sandra |

I've only got 50 on here. We have so many offshoots and 2nd wives etc. that it would be far too complex to post them all so I just have enough to produce the main 18 surname links. |
