Going to do a very #genealogy thing and list surnames. I'm not going to bother with Smith, for obvious reasons. If you might connect, let me know.
Roach, Clark, Roberts, Stackhouse, McVicker, Merricks, Daniel(s), Parrot(t), Vallat, Laigle, Jeannin/Genin, Donjon, Collignon, Ryan, Faherty, Bertram, Palandt, Clendennin (many variants), Seybold.
Some of the more common names are less likely matches, but ya never know. I could have added many more, but most are WAY back.
@poemblaze That's cool. Had trouble tracing my mom's side cause her mother was institutionalized for mental health issues and stuff was locked down, I guess. My dad's side, I have that back to the 1500's. I don't look into it much anymore. Makes me sad about moms' side because I never met her side, she was put into foster care when young after her mom was hospitalized, and her dad died of a heart attack while truck driving.
@StephanieResists If you're willing, I might possibly be able to help with the research. I'm an absolute genealogy nut and have been doing this for over 30 years.
@poemblaze Wow, you know the ins and outs then. That would be awesome, what do you need to know (If I can even answer it myself)? I don't know shat. Most of what I ended up with on dads' side was found by someone else who married into my family name.
@StephanieResists Sorry for the delay replying. Had several things happen at once. The other thread is. This is not.
@StephanieResists Hope more can be found about your mother's family.
