About Devon Roots
I have been researching my family tree for several years now.It all
started when the house my mother was born in came up for sale.Browsing
the internet for details of the house we came upon census information for the
family living there at the time.....as the saying goes one thing led to
another!
I have been lucky in that I still live within a few miles, of both my
husband's
and my ancestors,so am able to visit local churches,museums etc in search of
further information.
I am hoping through this site I can share not just the details of my family
but the many old family photos I am fortunate enough to have and in time local
photographs ,churches ,villages etc.
In the photo section I have included an album labelled 'UNKNOWN '.Please if
you can indentify anyone in any of the photos I would love to know who they
are.Most of the
photos in this album I believe are connected to the ABBOTT FAMILY
As this site is still very much under construction please visit again ,as more
names will be added daily.
I have started the tree with my Grandfather on my Mother's side,so as to avoid
including living relatives that may not be so keen to have their details
online.
Thank you for looking and please email me if you feel I can help with local
research or if you are able to indentify any of the 'Unknowns'
Finally but most important of all I must thank everyone who has helped me in
my research.Those who have given information from parish records,I appreciate
how difficult some of the fiches are to read!!those who have shared their own
family research details and those who have spent time discussing probabilities!
Many thanks to all of you.
