> Hello, Vickie, Many thanks for taking the trouble to respond to my e mail. I know that thanks to the US, we have such a great section of family history to share and I guess, as always its taking the Brits time to catch up. Anyway, it really would be super to find a link with the US. Once again, many thanks, Barbara > From: "jvford5" <[email protected]> > Date: 2006/01/15 Sun PM 04:26:50 GMT > To: [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Ford] Re: Ford family Middlesex UK > > Hello Jay, Barbara and Others Outside the USA, > Please understand that it's not because of lack of interest but lack of information. I've traced my Ford ancestors back to Thomas Ford/Elizabeth Dye (m.1794) when they were living in Charlotte VA. I have hunches that take me back 2 more generations but haven't any clue as to where they originally came from. I would love to tie in family histories with someone from abroad !! More than happy to share !! Sincerely, Vicki Ford in Virginia (USA) > ----- Original Message ----- > From: J.D.

My grandmother, Mary Anne Ford, was born in 1889 and was the daughter of Edward Ford, a French Polisher and Hannah (?), and I wondered if she was of your line. Forgive me for asking, but I, too, joined the Ford family request line, but all they seem to come back with are American Fords. As I have been looking for for info about Mary Ann (aka Polly), I hoped you dont mind my asking. > > > >Regards, > > > >Barbara > > > > > >==== FORD Mailing List ==== > >http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/index/FORD > >Contact me if there is any trouble with this site [email protected] > >Teddy > > > >============================== > >Search the US Census Collection.
