Hi, Recently someone posted with the last name Nugent - silly me I deleted it could they please contact me. Thanks, Betty in snowy Alberta Adios from the Ponderosa, Where little doggies roam. Researching, Nanson, Ancion, Nugent, Duke, Groenink, Frederick,

Hi everyone, Having been a member of every Newfoundland genealogy mailing list since their beginnings, it's time to call it quits. My parents and I started our search for the Newfoundland origins of my great grandfather Thomas Flynn back in 1995, and despite trying just about every possible avenue, we've drawn a complete blank. In the eight years since we started out, both my parents have passed away, and I've carried on the search in their absence, but finally have to admit defeat. It's not all bad news though, because I've corresponded with some wonderful people through the mailing lists, and come across so many people who have freely offered advice and their time to do lookups for me. Genealogy seems to bring out the best in people. I would especially like to thank the past and present coordinators of the Newfoundland Grand Banks website, whose selfless willingness to help others is really appreciated by everyone who uses the site. By the way, there is a photo of my ggf at http://ngb.chebucto.org/Dist_Photo/sjc-928.shtml . All the best everyone! Paul Flint Perth, Western Australia paul.flint@riotinto.com

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DOC.2ACE/123.1 Message Board Post: Hi: Perhaps you can straighten me out. I have "George" Frampton born on July 11 1860. He married Providence Milley.

Looking for info on my grandfather William Cofield who died on Dec. 14, 1893 in St. John's, NFLD, Canada. He at one time was a first or second mate on the brig., Jesse and another time on the Bark. Fannie. He later worked as a cooper in St. John's and 2 of his children Edward and James attended the Bonaventure school.He was married to a Margaret Walsh who ran a grocery and conf. store. They lived on St. James st. at the time of his death which was published in the paper that I found on micro film. He was buried in Belvedere Cemetery with 3 of their little children. I found the grave stone. It was a very emotional thing for me to see it and the names of an aunt, 3 years old, 2 infant uncles, 6 and 7 months. Hope someone can help me. Sincerely, Margaret Coefield Nugent. 3 Hye Road, Edgartown, MA 02539, USA. pcoefield@earthlink.net

My contemporary, still married, Irish friend told me just yesterday that it was not until after his marriage in 1969 that he learned his wife, also born in Ireland, had been taught Irish history from an entirely different textbook and slant then he had experienced. Catherine was tickled to read an account of the 1704 law about horses valued over five pounds sterling. More than 250 years later her father had used that excuse to tell her why she could not own a horse, as a teenager. Cheers, Lloyd ===== "Sometimes it is easier to accept/believe a lie, rather than take the time and effort required to learn the facts." __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
