I ended up on this page by clicking on a link from someplace totally unrelated. What a hoot! I have some information on the genealogy of my surname and will pass it on when I can find it. I do know that the original spelling was Dinsmoor later changed to Dinsmore and then to Densmore by my great-great-great grandfather Eliphalet Densmore. I also know that I'm decended from John Dinsmoor who was born in Scotland and then emigrated to Ballywattick in county Antrim, Ireland and then onto New England in 1730. Supposedly, he was the progenitor of all the Dinsmores, Densmores and Dunsmores in the US. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any questions or have anything to pass along.
