Hi Kim,

 

There are some trees there but they were mostly put there so I could download them to enter onto the web site. You can send your stuff directly to me if you want. cdurnford@...

 

The name Isaacson came from Andrew Durnford’s wife Jemima Margaret Isaacson. I’m not sure where Montague came from but it also shows up in one of Margaret’s son’s name for the first time (that I know of) so it could have been a family name from her side as well. http://www.durnfordfamily.com/genealogy/getperson.php?personID=I0221&tree=001

Hi Cynde, and et al Durnfords

 

Thank you for adding me to your yahoo group.  I've been receiving the e-mails and are all very interesting. As I visit the site, I have noticed that there are family trees there.  I would be happy to add mine to this, if this would be of interest to the group.

 

Does anyone know the Isaacson line?  Also, where did the Montague come from?

 

I am planning a trip back to England and would like to find some old records, visit churches and the graveyards if possible.  My understanding is that Margaret Isaacson, AMID mother is buried in a tomb in London. DOes anyone know where that tomb is?

 

My Durnford line from Andrew MI Durnford is ALfred C. Durnford and Harriet West.

 

Merry Christmas to you all,

 

Kim Worrall

Hi Cynde:

 

My wife and I were at the funeral to-say for Andy Durnford (A.M.I.D.V). The funeral home was crowded with additional people seated in an auxiliary room with closed circuit T.V. Monitors.

 

There were various individuals speaking including, a) One of his partners of over 20 years in business, b) someone from the Lions Club, of which he was a member, c) someone from the Sailing Club, of which he was a member, d) someone from the Motorcycle Club of which he was a member, e) It was mentioned that he had worked for Habitat for Humanity in the area, f) His son spoke - A.M.I.D.VI as well as, g) his sister Frances. There were several songs sung by tape through the P.A. system. A cousin - Anne - also spoke and had a difficult time as he had helped her quite a bit. She was the daughter of Ted and Norma Durnford, who also were in the U.K. in 2005. Also present was his mother Kay Durnford who was in the U.K. in 2005 and will be 90 this coming August. My sister Margaret Purser was there as well filling out the U.K. 2005 roster.

 

It was both an emotional and a happy reminiscing recall of a life well lived but ended all too soon as he was only 59. 

 

It was a long service with so many speaking but all there had been touched by his life in some way or another, as attested to by the conversations after the service.

 

I thought it would be good to fill you in on the departure of a Durnford from such an illustrious line.

Hi all,

 

I just found out from Andrew VI that his dad Andrew Montague Isaacson Durnford V passed away on Dec. 4. Those of you who went to the reunion in 2005 would remember him. http://www.durnfordfamily.com/reunion.html

Ah that makes I forgot about calendar year being all messed up at that time. My software corrects a lot of the dates around there by putting both years in.

Hi Cynde

I have checked my records and come up with the same dates.  Prior to 1752 the calendar year started on 25th March. Thus a christening on 23 April 1655 would have been during month 1 of 1655.  The death on 25th Feb 1655 would actually have been in month 10 of the same year. 

I recall having got into a muddle on many occasions by the dating system and hope I have got it right now.

Regards

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

 

I’m in the middle of inputting your ged file into my database and I have a question. Can you check the dates for:

 

William Durnford (son of Richard Durnford & Sarah Crane)  

You have these dates:

Born: 23 April 1655

Christening: 23 April 1655

But you have his burial dated 25 Feb. 1655 which is before his DOB

 

Can you verify for me please?

 

Thanks,

Cynde

Not sure if everyone is aware but Memorial University of Newfoundland’s (MUN) has a Digital Archive Initiative (DAI).http://collections.mun.ca/index.php.

 

As explained on the site “this marks the beginning of a long term coordinated effort to digitize the learning and research based cultural resources managed by the various archives and departments on campus. The DAI provides mechanisms for the long-term preservation of digital objects in a variety of formats (image, audio, video, etc.) and for controlled access to the digital collections for both the Memorial University community and the general public. At the present time the DAI includes a variety of digitized books, rare Newfoundland maps, the James Ryan (1874-1919) Diaries, Dr. Cluny Macpherson's Notebooks, the Miawpukek Mi'kmawey Prayer Book, the Newfoundland Quarterly and Material Culture Review journals, along with historical photographs, videos  and newspapers which together reinforce the importance, past and present, of Newfoundland history and culture.”

 

Documents by Jukes, J. Beete (Joseph Beete), 1811-1869, Feild, Edward, 1801-1876, Hind, Henry Youle, 1823-1908 and many others are available.

Hi everyone

 

Hope all is well around the family.

 

I've started having a look through some of the online records and I've come across the English Criminal records from 1791 - 1892 and there are a number of Durnford names listed.

 

Two in particular that I found were AMI #1 and his son Montague, both found not guilty of obtaining goods by false pretences in February 1851. Has anyone found anything about these charges in any of their research?

 

There's also a George Durnford who was transported after being guilty of larceny in 1841. I know he's not from my direct line but he could be the first Durnford who came out to Australia.

 

Does anyone know anything about these crimes?

 

Cheers,

Lucy
