This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: GRAINGER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/EEg.2ACIB/127 Message Board Post: Hi, My 2 x Great Grandfather was John GRAINGER born 30 Jul 1826 at Cupar, Fife, Scotland. He was shown as a Cabinet Maker, Ship Porter, Street Porter & Shoemaker on various documents. The Old Parochial Registers at the General Register Office for Scotland show him as a Cabinetmaker but the 1851, 1881 & 1891 census shows him as a Shoemaker. Therefore I think "Cabinetmaker" may have been a mistake I have not been able to locate his parents. Is there anyone on this Board that can help me to find his parents? The following is from "my" Notes and I thought you may find it to be of interest. There are a number of GRAINGER in Scotland and there is strong circumstantial evidence that some of them may have spent periods of time in Yorkshire. My 2 x Great Grandfather - John GRAINGER a Ship Porter resided at No. 1 Cumberland Street Lane, Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland when he married Isabella BOWIE his Spouse had a "Daughter Born there on the Eight day of January last" - Named Mary Davidina Brown (I believe she would have been given the "Brown" from the minister who christened her - I. B.) Baptized on the Sabbath Twenty Second February current in St Bernard's Church by the Rev. David BROWN, late minister of the Scottish Church in Liverpool (this could indicate that John's father was in Yorkshire. There were GRAINGER in Col. James DURHAM's Fencibles which was established around 1795/96. They fought in the Irish Rebellion of 1798, therefore, it is possible that the Grainger's had children born in Ireland. The regiment was disbanded in 1799. >From "the pages & the Names 'Tasmania Gen Web', 'Tas Gen Web', & 'Australia Gen Web' are Copyright c1999-2000 Pacific Gen Web Project <http://www.rootsweb.com/~pacifgw/>.

There are also GRAINGER in the London area that came from County Durham sometime in the nineteenth century (or maybe even earlier). It is possible that the father of my 2 x Great Grandfather John GRAINGER (who was born on 30 July 1826 in Cupar, Fife, Scotland) was in Yorkshire. Later generations were in Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland & Monifieth, Forfar, Scotland before they immigrated to Australia. Not all of the family came to Australia and I have not been able to trace them either. In fact they are proving a bit elusive. Just a bit of trivial information for you: - My Grandmother always said: - 1. All GRAINGERs (if spelt with "i") are related. 2. The GRAINGERs are related to the English Royal Family. I have not been able to confirm either of these 2 statements but I also note that some of my GRAINGER Line are shown on different records as GRANGER so I don't hold to my grandmother's statement. There was a Vicar in the 1600's by the name of GRAINGER and when he died his wife married a son of the King of Scotland (he never became King) so maybe this is where my grandmother's story came from.

Hi Everyone New to List and posting my interests. I believe I am descended from John GRAINGER, "mealman, of Castle Mill in the Parish of St Owen", Hereford (wife Joyce HYATT?). His son, Thomas (1778-1849), a butcher, married Elizabeth BEAVAN at Holmer in 1801. Thomas's son William (1815-1887), was a journeyman tailor. He married twice, the second time to Phoebe SIMPSON, who gave birth to my grandmother, Rosa Grainger, in 1871. Glad to make contact with anyone researching these families and to share information. Bert Pemberton in Blackpool, Lancs. _________________________________________________________________ MSN Photos is the easiest way to share and print your photos: http://photos.msn.com/support/worldwide.aspx

Hi Bill, I have Graingers in middlesex, do you match any of the following: Lydia Eliabeth Ann Grainger & Edward Grainger Nikki

One of the most difficult genealogical books to find is a 1970's publication by Elizabeth McKoy called, "Early Wilmington, Block by Block from 1733 On. This book eluded me for almost ten years until I recently purchased a copy from a rare book dealer in North Carolina. It was printed in a very small edition, the author subsequently passed away without children and the book was never reprinted, making it a challange to locate. I contacted the Lower Cape Fear Historical Society to see if they had copies and they too confirmed that the book was impossible to find. Many of Miss McKoy's original papers have been deposited at the Society so if you are in Wilmington it might be worth while to visit them at 126 South Third St. in the old Latimer house. My genealogical interest in the Cape Fear region is due to the Cowan's who settled in the area. >From the book we find the following: "Most of the facts used were found in and taken bodily from the oldest deeds in the New Hanover Courthouse-those old books named AB, C, D, E, and on. I used them as far as S and beyond. These are in various types of handwriting and were inscribed long ago by the then Register of Deeds. The oldest deed used here was dated 1733, and most, but not all, were dated before the middle of the 1800's" What actually happened was the creation of a genealogy of an entire historic district. If a person owned propery in the blocks as far back as 4th st., Miss McKoy recorded that in her book. For those of you who would like a copy of this 159 page book please contact me privately for pricing details at cscunc@aol.com. I will provide a list of some of the surnames found in the index for your general information. Regards, Robert Cowan 525 Harrogate Rd.
