Newfoundland's Grand Banks Message Board

Hello:

First I want to thank you for having and maintaining this wonderful site!

My name is Ann Sheree and I have begun searching my family tree, in earnest, this year when my daughter announced her engagement.

She is marrying a wonderful young man who can trace his family tree, on his father's side, right back to Scotland.

Both my mom and dad have direct ties, maternally, to NL.

My mom's mother and family were from the Bonavista Bay area while my dad's mother's maternal & paternal families were from Lushes Bight, Pilley's Island & Twillingate communities.

I absolutely love NL, and the people of this amazing island, and would be thrilled to have the opportunity to visit again!

Hi! What families are you working on?

Hi There:

I am working on two family branches on my dad's side....the Morgan's and the Chappell's from Lushes Bight and Pilley's Island (possibly Kettle Cove as well). Then on my mom's side I am working on the Tremblett's and the Abbott's from the Bonavista area.

At the moment I have only been able to go one generation back on all searches by using parish records.
