Hello Victor, Many thanks for your email and I would love to have your BRIGGS details for my ONS. My mother's maiden name was BRIGGS. MY grandfather being the only member of his family to come to Australia....settled first at Rockdale (Sydney) and then went to Maryong (now Blacktown) in NSW. My cousins may do a DNA test soon. I have started a DNA Project for my grandfathers maternal side BASKETT. Enjoy your travels in beautiful Canada and I look forward to hearing from you later on. I'll send you the 'dropbox' with the information we Briggs followers are sharing. Bye for now. Kind regards Ann Spiro Perth, WA Guild rep-australia-north-west@one-name.org ONS: Baskett; Briggs. DNA Project: Baskett Http://blacksmiths.mygenwebs.com .............................................. Hi Ann I have a number of BRIGGS in my tree. My grandfather, George Henry Briggs was born in 1862 at Ludford Magna, Lincolnshire. He was the illegitimate son of Mary Briggs who married Charles Markham in 1865. George Henry Briggs was henceforth known as George Henry Markham. I had a DNA test to see if it was possible Charles Markham was his father. He is not. His father was from Central Europe possibly Poland. My DNA details are on the DNA web site. If you don't have my Briggs I will send you the details, for your one name study, when I get home next week. I am currently touring Canada. I am in contact with a cousin, Roland Briggs, who lives in Lincolnshire Victor
