    Default Samiville Hovsep (Joseph) - India

    Does anyone have any information about Ezekiel and Samiville Joseph - Armenians from Tiblisi who settled in India circa 1881 / 1891? Samiville married Annie Ursula Collett in 1881, in Benares. Widowed, he then married Eleanor Catherine Coleman in 1891. Samiville settled in Calcutta and had eight children.

    Does anyone know or remember Thelma Joseph born circa 1896, Calcutta? Married a John Dent and moved to Cananda?

    Does anyone know Barbara Yvonne Joseph - schooled at St. Mary's Convent Ninital, circa 1930 - 1944?

    Hello, Thank you for taking the time - however, I already know all this as I have been researching for a good few years. I was really looking for any people out there that may be related - second and third cousins.

    Regards,

    Sometimes some of us need to look at the family to get a feel for the family

    Hi Ronnie24,

    I am related to Annie Ursula Collett, so if you are descended from that marriage we could be distant cousins.

    Hello Valmay,
    I am the great grand-daughter of Samiville Arthur Joseph from his second marriage to Catharine Coleman in 1891. My grandfather was Bertram and my mother (still living) came to England in 1946. Are you the granddaughter/great-granddaughter of Samiville the Policeman - from the first marriage to Annie Ursula? Where do you live?

    Do you have any pictures of your side of the family?

    Not sure if this is still Active but I believe Samiville and Annie had a son called Earnest. That was my great grandad and Sami my great great grandad

    Hello,
    I am the g-grand-daughter of Samiville Arthur & Catherine (m. 1891).
    According to my research (done physically at the Euston British Library) - Sami & Annie had three children - Edith Annie / Charles Herbert / Annie Ursula. No mention of an Earnest? Are the above your ancestors?

    Hello Divadonovan
    I have just re-checked my notes and I see from a hand-written list (in Samiville's own hand from his bible) that Ernest Arthur -born 25th February - year torn off. Do you have an e-mail address?
