Hello to all, I'm new to this list. I'm researching the family name DINSMORE/DINSMOOR or any spelling there of. The line I'm looking for is mainly from MA and Maine. Does anyone have any connection to this line? Allen Herbert Dinsmore (my grand father) 1911 - 1990 married Edna Lucie Bouchard in 1940 3 children Lucien Samuel Dinsmore, born Medford, ME 1872 - 1959 Married Etta Mae Lowe ?? 5 children Samuel Osco Dinsmore, born Medford, ME 1843 - 1897 Married Hattie Sawyer 1864, she died 1875 2 children Married Ida Smart between 1875 and 1877 6 children Samuel Dinsmore, born Saco, ME, died Medford 1804 - 1891 Married Mary Jane Johnson in 1842 At least one child, don't have any record of more Samuel Dinsmore, Saco, ME, died Dewitt County, Iowa 1775 - 1861 Married Esther Harmon 1798, At least 4 children, don't have record or more This is where I lose the line. Does anyone share this line in any way? I know most of us descend from Laird Dinsmoor then through John, born about 1650. Can anyone carry the line from John down closer to present day? I want to see if my information matches with others. Sorry for the long message. I hope someone can help me. Thanks, Lisa Cozzens [email protected] 978-506-7187
