I can give you what I have back to Adolphus's grandparents. There are more generations on the One Tree, but the data is not bearing investigation very well. As you can see, Adolphus had more siblings but they did not survive childhood. Adolphus was my husband's grandfather. Where does your tree attach to the Fifield's? You will find that the name was apparently spelled Fyfield in the 1700's. Descendants of Giles Fifield Generation No. 1 1. GILES FIFIELD born 02 Dec 1827 in Trinity, Trinity Bay, Nfld.
