Hello Liz No I have not been able to establish which William GWINNETT I have, my information has been mainly assembled from Census records. I have followed his family through the 1851 to 1891 Census records he consistently records his place of birth as Stroud. I have a double connection to the family of William with the marriages of his children as below, though no direct connection to the GWINNETT surname. "Sidney HAGUE: Maurice Keith FRENCH's 1st cousin 3 times removed's husband's brother" "Henry WALKLEY: Maurice Keith FRENCH's great-grandaunt's husband's brother" Thank you for the marriage information on William. Regards Maurice Keith French 8 Admiral Crescent Flagstaff Hamilton New Zealand Hi Maurice I am interested in all Gwinnetts, anywhere, anytime!
