TANNER FAMILY RESEARCH
My main research has
been my father's side of the family - the TANNERS - who were originally
centred around Stroud in Gloucestershire, UK. I have also been looking
at my wife's family - the GREENHILLS. See
"My
Genealogy Interests" for details
of my current researching. The list of names is now over 4500 thanks
to the generosity of a relative (2nd cousin, once removed) in England,
Tom Tanner; my cousin Karlena Lockett who gave
me a huge file of the descendents of John William Allanby (b. 1794, Flimby,
Cumberland, England.) and of James Henry SPAULDING (b. ca 1805, Birmingham,
England), my mother's ancestors; and Lyn Boyes
who gave me a huge file of the descendents of Thomas Greenhill (b. ca 1750,
Gt Chishill, Essex, England.). Thanks also to Viv Kingston who has
added significantly to the Spaulding file, and to Dianne Ashlin, Dorne
Saunders, Andrea, Midge Henderson and John Smith (another 2nd cousin, once
removed), who have also kindly allowed me to use some of their research.
Des Gander gave me a significant Gander file from his
One
Name Study. A "thank you" list is always dangerous because of
the possibility of missing someone. My apologies to any such person
- please let me know if I have missed you!
If you have any information
which could be added, please let me know via the email link below.
I have used
GedHTree
to list what I have so far discovered about my family.
Please note that I
use the Chapman Country/County Codes for all locations.
(See Graham
Jaunay's great list if you need to check one.)

This is basically
somewhere to put all those wonderful old photos, post cards and other bits
and pieces which relate to my family. There are some rather interesting
pictures, even if you are not interested in the family itself. Click
