Thomas Gadd (1810-1889), son of Robert and Dinah Gadd, of Trull, Co. Somerset, England, wife Mary Ann (Parsons) and five children emigrated to Ontario, 1854. Have nearly complete record of descendants. Any connection with your line ?

My Thomas Gadd was born 1801 in England and died 1867 in Kent County, Ontario. His father was also Thomas Gadd, born about 1769 in England and died after 1851. This Thomas was shown in the 1851 Canada West Census in South Dumfries. He emigrated from England in 1803 going first to New York, then came to Canada in 1825. The children of Thomas Sr. and Hannah were: Thomas, Elizabeth Frances, and Geraldine Letitia. He may have had another daughter Lucy Ann. Thomas Jr. had the following children: Mary Ann, Gleason, Esther, Emily, Noah, Jane and Elizabeth.
Does this family fit your records? I don't know where in England they originated.

It doesn't look like we have a match - as yet- but we live in hope. My Thomas Gadd was born in Trull, Co, Somerset, the son of Robert and Dinah Gadd. In Canada he settled in Normanby Township, near the village of Varney, Ontario. He is identified in the 1861 census along with his wife Mary Ann (nee Parsons) and children, Dinah, Thomas, Susanna, Richard, Charles, William, Eliza, and James. We'll Keep looking for connections.

Hi Nelson,
I am related to Thomas Gadd.
Actually my "Scott" family tree identifies two Gadds as being my great(X 2) grandmothers. One was Elizabeth add and on the other side was Esther Gadd. All my Gadds came from Ontario, Canada in the 1800's. One of their sets of parents were Thomas Gadd and Laura Weaver. The researcher Betty is working on part of my family too.
Email me sometime would love to share with you.
Thanks,

Nelson,
Do you think Eliza could have been short for Elizabeth?

Hi I have information on the Gadd's in Ontario but I am having a hard time trying to connect them to the ones from England or Wales. There is a man that is married to a Gadd and has a great site his name is bob anderson from uk try looking at his site. It helped me to add ancestors to my husband's genealogy.

Hi,
You had a conversation with Nelson Gadd a couple of years ago- I am sad to say he passed right about the time of your last posting to him. I am a great niece and trying to put together what he started. Please feel free to use my Gadd family tree if there is anything you need.

I would love to share anything you may have regarding this line,
