Hello:

I have been searching for information on James Short born 1842 (I believe Hants Harbour). He married Elizabeth Brine in 1869 and had several children one of which was my great grandmother Annie Theresa Short. I would like to find more information on James Short so if anyone is connected to this line I would love to hear from you.

regards
Zippy

Hi Zippy:
I've been researching Hant's Harbour families (especially the Shorts) for many years now. I've been able to identify and trace 3 distinct Short Family lines, and also have a large file of unlinked Shorts; however, in none of my files can I find your ancestors.
I've checked the Marriage Records and the Birth Records (taken from both Vital Statistics and Parish Registers) and your family does not seem to be there.
Can you give me more information? Who did Annie Theresa marry? Did she stay in Hant's Harbour?
Hope I can help you and also connect these Shorts to my other groups.
My Grandfather, HJP "Jim" Short was from Hant's Harbour, and was descended from Absalom (b. 1856), Nicholas (b. 1826), James (b. 1804) and Samuel (b. poss. 1760)
Look forward to your reply.
Kim

Saw your message regarding SHORT families in Newfoundland. My ggrandfather was William Short, Grand Bank. Not sure when he came from England but have found him there by 1868 when he married Rose Dinah Weymouth (d/o William Weymouth and Jane King). Was wondering if you have a link between him and any of the other Shorts in Newfoundland. Also have been unable to find anything further on Rose's parents. If you have any info would you please let me know.
Thanks
Suzanne
