Hi,
This might be slightly difficult to explain but my line is related the the devonshire Effer's by marriage.
My great aunt Edith Capel married James Henry Effer in 1908, he is the son of Samuel Edward J Effer born in Paignton in 1863 and possibly married to an Elizabeth (in a later census he states that he is single so I am not sure if there was a legal marriage or not). His father is John Effer (born in 1830) married to, I belive, Susan Hill (this might be Heale) and his siblings include Mahala Thirza (I love this name!) who married a John Dicker and had numerous children who I wont list at this time; Agness married to Henry James Perrett; Sarah Ann married to Augustine Raymont; Charlotte married to Alan Jonas; John Robert Hex; William Henry James; Jessie Anna and Albert H.
I have litrally been working on this today and so this is as far as I got in one day, I love families that stay put and are easy to trace.
I would love to know more, I have found with family history that everytime I come across a new surname I am curious as to where that came from so I don't always work on direct lines. It makes life interesting. So please do not hesitate to contact me here or at
