Am busy trying to corral all of those elusive ancestors..and have this sofar..My g.grandfather was Eli Walter Swaine who was the son of Thomas Swaine of Horton (he died 1855)..who was the son of Richard and Ruth Swaine..and he was the son of John Swaine..and he was the son of James Swaine.. Okay..now does anyone have any of these people in their lines? I am hoping that some kind soul has found the magic link that will help me sort out all of these Swaines that were in and around Horton in the 1600s-1800s..My research thus far has led me in circles with these people..I know that all of these Swaine's eventually are related at some point but am sure frustrated in finding the right ones with the right families.. Some of them were members of the Chapel Lane Parish Church..Independent ..and some from Wibsey..and some from Manningham..along with Horton. Great Horton and Little Horton were the main areas that they lived..Thomas Swaine owned an inn in a couple of places..His great Uncle Gilbert Swaine also owned an inn called the George and Dragon..when he was alive.. Hope to find someone else who is researching the same family lines.. Thanks all.. C.Olsen in Alaska.. **************It's Tax Time! Get tips, forms, and advice on AOL Money & Finance.
