Hi Graeme Lynley has posted that the answer has been received (offlist I presume as I saw nothing on the list which is a pity) But had to reply to your post as you are I am afraid mistaken There is no difference between a great uncle and a grand uncle, both terms are in the OED and it comes down to personal usage Usually those who use Grand uncle/aunt are from the USA, most other countries usually use Great Uncle/Aunt Your fathers brother would be your uncle Your grandfathers brother would be your great (or grand) uncle Your great grandfathers brother would be your great great (or great grand) uncle The usage of Grand was exported to the Americas from England several hundred years ago, it fell out of use in the UK but continued in the later USA Nivard Ovington in Cornwall (UK) On 21/10/2014 00:07, Graeme Ardern via wrote: > Hi Lynley, > > Your Grandfathers brother would be your Grand Uncle, so it stands that your > Great Grandfathers brother would be your Great Uncle. > It goes by the appropriate generations. > > People mistakenley call Grand Uncles, Great Uncles, and that confuses the > matter. > > Hope this helps. > > Cheers, Graeme Ardern

    2. Bob Poole via
    3. The James and Annie BUTLER, mentioned in that article, are both buried at the Papakura Cemetery, Annie died 1937, so if you are right about her dying before 1915, then it may be another 2 people of the same name from the same place. Not unheard of by any means. James died in 1927 aged 91, does this fit? Did he remarry to another lady named Annie?

    1. Re: [nz] Searching for Henry John CORONO
    2. Ray Rob via
    3. Further to Jo's helpful input : There was a Henry John CORONNO living in Napier , in 1981 . No sign of a Carole CORONNO. The brother you mention was no doubt David victor CORONNO whose wife was probably Grazia Florence CORONNO. Interesting , if you were given the surname spelling CORONO , by Henry's brother ?
