    3. Hi Patricia Yes, we do, my direct line is from Jonathan's daughter Ann Griffiths who married Robert Potts. Jonathan died at Port Fairy in 1839. Which line from James are you? As he had 4 wives there are a few options ! The Griffiths family is very large as there were 11 children plus the ward Elizabeth Kirby. Did you have a look at the Griffiths web site? There is also one on the Potts family line, we have been working on these for quite a few years trying to collaborate data, although I must say I am not a great fan of websites as there is much room for inaccuracies if the data is taken by others and used inappropriately. You could email me off list if you want to discuss the family lines and need any other family contacts.

    3. Hi Julie, I'll try emailing you off list. James Griffiths only had three wives not four - regardless of what the website says <smile>. I've also done some work on the Potts line (all documented) and I am happy to share this with you as well as what I have on the family of James Griffiths. It is lovely to find another descendant of Jonathan and Eleanor. I'll email you in a couple of minutes and hope I get it right as I do not have an email system that shows addresses so have to dig for them, if I can't get through privately I'll come back through the list to let you know.
