Hi, George, my OZ genie angel, Thank you so much for all these individuals. This is so great! I do appreciate it muchly. No, I am not necessarily collecting Jaques per se (although the further back we go we find some spelled variously Jagnip, Jaques, Jaquis, Jaquiss, Jeaques, Jequis, Jugnip, Juquis) but Trevor decided to create this Jaques list and nothing would do but that I join because it was going to cover: Jacques, Jacquis, Jaques, Jaquis, Jaquiss, etc. Which is cool. So since you have done all this great work I am sharing it with the most circulation I can. If you are going to do all this it might as well benefit the largest community possible. I hope that is copesetic with you. Most of the individuals you found are "mine" and I have identified them. I have further information on them but although I had descendants for them I didn't have marriage dates or places for most of them so that is a step forward and a wonderful help. I have added my information after the ***. Thanks, again. Deborah in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, DC, USA snip HI Deborah, I saw your message to Trevor, are you collecting Jaques as well as Jaquiss? Marriages Benjamin Jaquiss - Irene O Cohen 1921 Jun 1a 1097 St Martin ***Benjamin was my second cousin once removed William C N Jaquiss - Doreen M Spearing 1921 Sept 8b 1274 W Derby ***Norman as he was called was my second cousin once removed Doris M Jaquiss - Frederick E Sidaway 1922 Sept 6c 37 Stourbridge ***I shall have to find her Annie R Jaquiss - Ronald L Penwill 1925 Dec 8b 750 W Derby ***Annie was my second cousin cousin once removed Thomas H(erbert) Jaquiss - Edna Cox 1926 Jun 8d 527 Manchester S ***Bert as he was called was my second cousin once removed. He was one of my English cousins that had been researching Jaquiss family history and genealogy with Margaret Armstrong nee Jaquiss but they never found their connection during their lifetime. My understanding is that it was always Margaret's contention that the Jaquiss were Huegnots who fled France and came to England. While it was Bert's opinion that the Jaquiss' were Norman English who came to England before the Huegnots were organized. Marion E Jaquiss - Arthur E Corran 1926 Sept 8b 947 W Derby ***Marion was my second cousin once removed and it is her son Ted Corran that has recently been doing Jaquiss family history & genealogy in Merseyside/Wirral.
