Hello all, My father's whole paternal side came to the US from ENGLAND 1910 not too long after the birth of my grandfather John COLEMAN(1909). His parents were James COLEMAN(1880-83) and Fanny HARLING(1885). Fanny's parents were John HARLING(1864) and Annie EAVES(1863). Annie's parents were John EAVES and Anna. My EAVES are traced back to 1445 thanks to cousin David EAVES My g grandfather James COLEMAN was raised in an orphanage since his father James COLEMAN(b.a.1840) died when he was very young and his mother and grandmother could not take care of him. He and 4 other boys were taken out of the orphanage to work in the home of either an EAVES or a HARLING. There he met Fanny and they married in 1906. James enlisted in Canada to fight with England in WW1. His Attestation Papers state that he was born in Liverpool in 1880.
