Does anyone have any information on Abraham House and Francis Rankins who were divorced on March 18, 1771, in New Jersey. Source is Documents Rleating to the Colonial History of the State of New Jersey, Divorces By the Court of Chancery, page 186. Thanks, R. Fossett
Posted on: House Queries Reply Here: http://genconnect.rootsweb.com/gc/FamilyAssoc/House/136 Surname: House, St John, Weed ------------------------- To Gail T. I don't think I can help you with Charles E. House, but am interested in John Payson St. John House of Wisconsin. My House family of the Civil War era was Abraham House Jr and wife Rebecca, living in Ontario, Canada. Several of their children went to Wisconsin and Michigan, and one (Weed House) went to Mississippi. The name St. John keeps cropping up, as guarantor of Rebecca's estate during probate, as next door neighbour, as witnesses at weddings of Abraham and Rebecca's chidren. One of the ancestors is Polly St John, who married Elijah Weed, had a son named St John Weed. I think Rebecca may have been a Weed by birth. The family also seemed to have connections in Vermont -- one of Abraham's brothers was born there, even though family was living in Ontario at the time. Any ideas? Thanks, R. Fossett

I asked for one name in particular to "just see" what it would be. When he pulled it out and started telling me about it I almost doubled over to keep from laughing. The Family Crest for Tussey was a wonderful "French" crest and I should be so proud of the crest that was carried so proudly by my french ancestors. I took the guy aside and informed he was committing comsumer fraud and that the Tussey name was actually Finnish and that they really didn't have a family crest. He told me I was wrong, so I politely took out my "goodies" from my brief case and showed him 22 years of research and documentation. His face turned and red and he went back to his counter and put up a closed sign. The next day, I went back and sent my friend to ask him about a couple of names and ended with Tussey. He told her he had never heard the name and didn't think they had a crest. I finally went over and ask for some more of my names and gee guess what...no Alexander, no Yarborough, no Bain, no Gray or any of the other names I have researched for years. I guess you realize what I'm trying to tell you. Be careful. Please do not jump at things that are published as some of these are publications to just make money, your hard earned money. Talk to a good genealogist and they can point you in the right direction. Ask for samples of newsletters, before you buy and realize not all people are as honest as we are. If you ever get a letter telling you they have a wonderful "House Book" and you are in it, don't even go there. That one's been around for a long time. I published the House Hunting monthly newsletter for five years. I have tons of House information that I am always happy to share, just ask and if I have it, it's yours. >> Dear Mary, The <A HREF="http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/House/134">House website</A> to put the above on http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/Fam ilyAssoc/House/134. The copy/paste function will not work at this site so you will need to retype the above into the message box. My HOUSE family line has not been researched in a good manner. When I started looking into my family tree and specifically the HOUSE name I only had one goal in mind. The HOUSE side of the family always claimed to related to Pres. John Tyler. I figured if I could match up to a revolutionary soldier then I would be able to put my son on list for a college scholarship through SAR. I contacting family I ended up skipping around and not being able to connect my information to what the family sent in. Now that my son has entered 10th grade ... I have pretty much given up on obtaining him that scholarship. If you could check your HOUSE data against the following information it would be great. Thank you.

From my limited knowledge of this ancient, proud, ethnically diverse, culturally and historically active family most of whom give honor to the surname HOUSE, a mere coat of arms being peddled on the web is a small and insignificant matter. We who carry the name HOUSE, much as a humble hero carries his medals only on veterans day, or a mother hugging her child to her breast against a cold wind, or a child splashing in a rain filled puddle, nary a one needs a single coat of arms that will ever lay claim to our broad and honorable heritage. As the bandito in "Treasure of the Sierra Madre" states "Batches, we don need no dirty stinkin' batches". We carry simply, and with great pride, our name HOUSE, and as far as I'm concerned that is just plenty. "Hurrah" to all the HOUSES' out there in cyberland, save your money on crests and coats of arms and leather bound histories and instead raise a frosty mug or two to all the HOUSES' that have came before and to those yet to come!!! Cheers!!!!
To all House members. I wish I could get this kind of response from listing my lost ggg- ancestors House (Houseman). But for your information, I have seen this post on other sites. And as you may or have not noticed the email of Lynn is the same as for this commercial website. Hope this gets my point across. Concerned House member
Posted on: House Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/House/134 Surname: HOUSE ------------------------- Two points against this green crossed shield as the House coat of arms. It does not say in the message if it belongs to a HOUSE with ancestral roots back to Anglo Saxon or roots back to French origin. I was told that the Anglo Saxon coat of arms had unicorns on it. And whether Anglo Saxon or French the colors on the coat of arms were silver and red. Then of course there is the whole argument whether we descendants have a "right" to claim those coats of arms since they were designed for a specific aristocratic noble in our family tree and not ourselves. This could be why the post by Lyn does not match to what I have been told/ ... the shield and crest she displayed were for a noble in her own family branches she researched. She just thought she would share it with us not knowing that there could be multiply coats of arms (and mottos) assigned to any surname. If that is the case then she could have an authentic coat.

I am interested in Joseph House of Hampshire England's ancestors, he was a sawyer before he was sent to Australia for seven years. I feel his life in Australia was a very rewarding one, he helped in many ways to shape Victoria's history. He was found guilty in Berkshire, his convict papers spelt his name Howse. Kim House
