I am looking for connection to my grandfather's family whose location is not definitely known, but might have been the Croyden locale. My grandfather, John James was born Feb 28, 1863 in England, parents were Thomas and Elizabeth Howard. He had at least one sibling, brother Thomas who was killed in the Boer War. Also, he may have had two sisters though he told almost nothing of his early origins to any of his four children. He came to Canada in the early 1880's, settled in Montreal where he married Alice Margaret Hankins in 1890 in Montreal where they settled. He established a successful stevedoring business on the Montreal docks and raised 5 children. One son, Edward Horn Percy was killed, October 1916 at the Somme. He was predeceased by his wife in March 1913 and died himself in Montreal in August 1941. His only references to his birthplace were that he knew the sounds of the Bow Bells and a suggestion that the family may have been involved in the lumber trade in Croydon. I am anxious to trace the family back from his parents. We know that the Hankins family lived in the Oxford area back as far as the early 1700's. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks |

My ancestor was named Mary Howard and was on the orphan train to the State of Iowa in the 1880's from New York City. We believe her father was a policeman in New York. She was adopted by a family in Westfalia, Iowa. We are not sure why she was in an orphanage in New York City. She remembered her family as a small child. She married Tony Thraen and had seven or eight children in Iowa. |

Hello my name is Beverly Howard Coatney. I am doing a geneology for my children. I am looking for any information on the Howard side of my family. I have some information from a book that was sent to me by my brother called "The Heritage and Legacy of Francis Frazier II--A Blacksmith." My grandmother was Dorothy Evelyn Hockett Howard who was married to my grandfather Neil Howard and was married in 1925 and divorced in 1931. My father's name was Clare Allen Howard of Ohio. After reading the book it seems that this part of the family were Quakers. I married a Coatney and his genealogy shows a lot of Howards that married Coatneys from Kentucky. I am so confused. Could you give me an idea of where and how to start? Thank You from the bottom of my heart...Bev |

There is a link between the Howard family and the Uvedale families. Elizabeth Uvedale, daughter of Sir William Uvedale and Lady Victoria, married Edward Lord Howard, Viscount Morbeth and Count of Carlisle, before 1668. This is recorded, amongst other places, in a book on the Uvedale family written in 1865 by Granville Levison Gower, MP. Could you advise me of the best genealogy/family history contact, insofar as the Howard family is concerned? |

I discovered your web site thru a friend who suggested I try familysearch. I am trying to find my grandfather's twin brother. Here's what I know : Oscar Newton Howard and Arthur Howard were born 19 Feb 1889 in Johnson Co., TX, USA to Joseph Ab Howard and Emily Rebecca Jones. Arthur married Rose (?), date unknown, probably in TX. Supposedly had a female child, details unknown; and a son, possibly Harlan Howard. The family may have moved to California, details unknown. Any ideas, info or suggestions would be most appreciated. I think your web site is outstanding. An aside: My dad (who was given to making up very fanciful stories) used to tell me that our name meant "Royal Hog Caller". I thought he was full of baloney, but guess not. |

Looking for Ella Howard,of the boston HOWARD'S, relations. she married William Long Orris who was born mar.27,1861,died 1954. I think he was from Meadville Pennsylvania. Ella Howard is said to be a decendant of someone who came over on the Mayflower. And somehow either Ella Howard or William L.Orris are direct decendants to Thomas Jefferson. |

My name is Jenny Hudson, my great grandfather was Harry Howard, born 1862 in Romford to George Howard and Mary Ann Shillings (his second marriage). I know this second marriage took place in St George's, Hannover Square, London in 1862, and that both George and Mary Ann Shillings were resident in Mount Street in 1862. The census for 1861 Mount Street is largely destroyed. I know George was born in 1826 or 1827 but do not know where, or who or when he married for the first time. I have therefore been unable to make much more progess that this. George Howard died in 1865 in Noak Hill, Essex ( he was a licensed victueller), leaving a son, Harry and a baby George who died shortly after him. Harry (my great grandfather) was then a lodger at the local school before marrying Sarah Walton in 1886 in Polesworth. They had three children, George, Reginald and Mary. I found your website via the family search pages (I can't say I have found them very useful, they do not have any traces that would help me. Hoping that something in the above may fit in with your already extensive research. Looking forward to hearing from you, Regards, Jenny |

I am looking for Mary Elizabeth Howard (b. 1870) who married Valentine Vallentine (b. 1859). Mary Elizabeth, I believe, lived in England and Australia as a child. After her marriage she and Valentine lived in South Africa and had six children while there. After three of their children died from influenza in South Africa they moved to the USA, immigrating to New York City, with their three surviving children Sara Naomi "Sally", Estelle, and Phyllis. Phyllis died shortly after their arrival in the USA. This information was told to me by Mary Elizabeth before her death in 1968 but unfortunately this is all that is known Any help or information in locating this family would be appreciated. Thank You. |
