Slohairt,
I have done a lot of research on my wifes and my surnames. My father was adopted at birth. HIs surname was Gibbs. I may have traced his direct line to the Devon/Cornwall area. Do you know the history of that name?
My mother's maiden name was Harrell. I have traced her paternal line to Newcastle in Northumberland. Do you know how that name came about?
My wife's father was a Waring. Do you know anything about that name? We think he came from Canada. He left her family when she was young.
Thanks for your help.
