Hello from the States

[shewhoseeks]

My name is Jennifer. I am researching four families in the UK. Three are in Shropshire and Worcestershire, the Bramptons, the Timmins and the Spicers. I have another family I haven't gotten very far on, the Paxton's from either Oxfordshire or Birminghamshire. These four families are my newest arrivals to the States, coming between 1835 and 1884.

I have been researching for 10 years. I have my own genealogy website where I have my family and information on Choctaw indian genealogy. My grandfather was from the Choctaw tribe here in the states.

Hi Jennifer,
I was researching Tommins yesterday and found many Timmins in and around Shropshire, so good luck with that, this is a great site, they really are brick wall demolition experts. I am sure you will have much success and fun :)

|wave| Welcome! I'm such a |dunce2|. When I read the above and looked at your username I thought it was some Choctaw name ;) I now realise it is actually three words and could apply to us all!! My excuse is that I was up till 3am watching the Saints get to the Superbowl :)

Hi,
I am a newbie on this forum so welcome. I believe it will be very interesting from what I have seen so far. I have already researched my husbands family in the States now I am doing the same for mine here in the UK. Good luck to you

Actually, my name, which does apply to us all, is the english translation of my ancestor's name Nahotima, which means she who seeks and gives. I use it for my website email.

Nahotima is a lovely name!
