Please Specify for Web Page



QUERY TIPS
1. Include surnames in CAPITAL LETTERS
in the subject line and the first time you use it in the
query.
2. Be specific. People do not often respond to queries
such as "Send me all information about the POWELL
family"
2. Be specific. People do not often respond to queries
such as "Send me all information about the POWELL
family"
3. Check online sources for answers to general research
questions before posting to a list. Genealogists love to
help those who help themselves.
4. Try to stay away also, from using too many
abbreviations unless your space is limited. Many
researchers may not recognize the abbreviations you are
using.
5. Try to use an email address you will be sticking
with. There are thousands of queries on the Internet
with no way to reach the posters because the email
address is invalid.

We are tracing the histories of our GILBERT and
GOLDSMITH families over here in England and have placed
the information we have found on a website (which we
update as and when we find new information) at
http://website.lineone.net/~steve_and_jan .
The reason for this message is that we have a connection
with Mahoning County (and Youngstown in particular)
through members of the BATES family (Steve's paternal
grandmother was a BATES) who settled in Mahoning County
shortly before the First World War. Our website includes
details of those descended from these people, and we
thought it might be of interest to members of your
society who may be able to find connections back to the
UK. |

I am interested in exchanging information about the
Maddalena and Quaranto/Quaranta families who began
coming to the Hubbard area in the early 1880s and later
to Youngstown. Several of the Quarantas changed their
last name to Ford. Altered spellings for the Maddalenas
were Magdalena and Madaline/Madeline. Allied families
include the Leonellis, Caranos, DeMarios, Del Frainos,
Del Quadris and a few more. Thanks. Mike Vance -

I am looking for any info on the Joseph and Martha (Miller)
ROBBINS family found on the 1830 census in Poland, Trumball,
Oh. I know they were both born in New York and that Joseph's
father's name could have been Samuel. There are six children
reported on the 1830 census; the child I am related through
is Daniel Stoddard Robbins who was born in Dec 1830 and may
or may not have been recorded on the census. Any names of
the other children, whereabouts of any of the family besides
Daniel after 1830, or parent info for Joseph or Martha would
be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Amber Gurr -
