Hello Barbara and welcome to the Eayrs list. As you can see it's not very active :) I hope you will be able to find the information you're looking for. I'm...
Hi, Barbara Yes this is a sleepy group but it is still working! I can't find any link to anything you mention, buty you must remember that 'Eyre' is a very ...
Thanks Martin! Unfortunately, my EYRE branch came to the US from Ireland (Callen, Co. Kilkenny). As to how long they were in Ireland, and from whence they came...
Hi, My maiden name was Theresa Eayres, and I'm descended from the Eayres of Northants, in particular, Thrapston, Sudborough & Islip, although my 2xGGF...
Through the help of a good Samaritan, I was able to gleam a few more tidbits, but mainly with off-shoot family branches (Taylors and Bradleys). I updated the...
Martin, Thanks so much for that site. While the data isn't complete, it does say a lot. It potentially tells me that Eyre (and Eayre which doesn't have data) ...
Martin, I was going through my bookmarks, adding sites to mine in appropriate places (yes, added yours!) and saw you had added my site to your links page....
I think Martin has made a very good point about the variation in name spelling. In my tree, large families often have children with different spellings of...
Does anyone know if Warren Eayres 1823-1900 was a carpenter? I'm asking because sometime between 1861 & 1871, my 3x Great Uncle, Joseph Eayres, a tailor, born...
As we were discussing spellings recently I thought I'd share an experience I had today. Many years ago I searched the 1851 census for Greatford, Lincolsnshire...
Well done Martin and enjoy your supper - bet it's cold up there! Take care Sherryl _____ From: Eayrs@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Eayrs@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf...

Hi Theresa Lookup Wikipedia on the internet and search for mental retardation. There are a number of grades for the condition including imbecile and lunatic ...
The Warren Eayrs you mentioned is part of our (Martin and my) family tree.? I cannot give you the exact details as present as I have just had a computer crash...
Martin's post lit my light bulb ... Since I have so little ancestors listed/researched (am at the beginning for the most part) ... I have no clue at this point...
Hi Theresa - and thanks for posting. I think this is Warren Eayrs b. Greetham 16 Apr 1823 to Thomas Eayrs and Ann Warren Idle (the Warren came from Anne's...
Lynn my paperwork is in reasonable order - but remind me, who is 'our elusive Thomas Eayrs'? My brickwall (and I thought it was yours) is George Eayrs m. Mary...
Martin, Thanks for your help! I don't have a subscription at Ancestry.com, so I can't view those records ... have tried many times. :-( Off to go look .......
Some news: ONE I have managed to get the Guild of One-Name Studies (aka GOONS) to accept Eayrs in its own right (previously it was considered to be a subset of...
I have long been thrilled by the story of George Washington Eayrs, a man of good Boston family who in the early C18th, in the face of Spanish law, set himself...
Martin, All I can say is "whoa!" That would be SO great if all of them were connected in some way ... and to your family tree. Got me thinking ... is it true...
Well I read recently that almost everyone in the world has one of six identifiable sets of mitochondrial DNA - which means pretty much all of us are related. ...
AS Martin says, NEVER trust the IGI. It turned my 3x GGF Thomas Eayres, (son of Nathaniel Eayres born c1746 at Sudborough, and his wife Kezia of the Islip...
Hello again. I don't think it's 6 sets of mitochondrial DNA world wide, but certainly in the book 'Seven daughters of Eve' it is postulated that all native...
HI, I've just got in to work and read Martin's reply, (no pc at home), and I'd like to query Martin's definition of 'imbecile'. The Joseph I mentioned in my...
I'm wondering if anyone has any more info on Luther George Ingram EAYRS, son of James Burrows EAYRS and Jane THRAVES. The bare bones ... Luther George Ingram...
Theresa, It's good to know you exist *chuckles* ;-) Thank you for sharing your experience. Hmmm... Kezia ... that's an unusual English name, isn't it? Is it ...
While I'm not an Eayrs, but an Eyre (and possible an Eayre) ... I would also like to be apart of DNA studies. Only my Dad and his two brothers are alive as...
Martin, Your long Monday morning post was most welcomed and confirmed much of what I thought. I concur with the research methods, as I studied physics and...
