Hi. John and Elizabeth's son Herbert is my great-grandfather. Do you know who John's or Elizabeth's parents were? I know that Elizabeth was the midwife of the area. She died on October 3, 1939 at the age of 81 1/2 years according to her headstone in Leading Tickles.
|
John & Elizabeth's son, William, is my grandfather. I know that Elizabeth's mother is Tohmael Joanna Parsons. I'm trying to find more info on her.
|
My main focus was the Simms side. This may be the only information I have and you have already seen it in my file.
•Name: Elizabeth Sheila PARSONS 1 •Sex: F •Birth: MAR 1856 in Leading Tickles, Newfoundland •Death: 5 SEP 1939 in Culls Island, Leading Tickles, NF 2 •Change Date: 12 OCT 2006 •Note: Daughter of Jacob Parsons and Joanna Sheppard. In 1935Eliazabeth was an 80 year old widow living with her son Thomasin Leading Tickles. Her headstone reads she died October 3,1939 which differs from the elctronic transcription of theAnglican Church records. She was baptized September 10, 1856,at the age of 10 months. According to Vikki Ellis this was her gg grandmother and was the local midwife in Leading Tickles.
Do you have any information on the parents of John Simms who was my great grandfather.

Hi Tohmael Joanna Sheppard was my Great Great Great Grandmother. She was married to Jacob Parsons and their daughter Mary Parsons was my Great Great Grandmother. She married Eli Rowsell and their daughter was my Great Grandmother Emma Georgina Rowsell Hannam. She married George Hannam and their daughter was Lucy Hannam Peddle my Grandmother and she married John Brett Peddle. Their son is my father Gerald Kirby Hannem. He was raised by his Grandmother and Grandfather Hannam. I would like to know anything about Tohmael Sheppard that you might have. Do your know the origin of the name Tohmael. I have never heard it before.... Kimberly

Hi there,
I haven't heard of this name anywhere in our family before now. Joanna Sheppard was my great great grandmother. Her daughter Elizabeth Parsons, was my great grandmother; she married John Simms, who is buried here on the west coast. Elizabeth Parsons was the mother of my grandfather, Frederick William Simms. I am trying to find any information on her or her parents, John and Mary. So, as ancestry goes, we are related somewhere along the line. Any other information that you may have regarding Joanne or her parents, I would truly appreciate.

I have 7 children born to John and Elizabeth. Fred being the youngest. John was my great grandfather. I have Fred being born May 21, 1900 in Leading Tickles. I recall my father speaking of Uncle Fred when talking about the family tree. Do you have a death date for Fred and his descendants. I would be more than happy to share information.
