Re: trying to find family
Keith, good to hear from you. I have completed much research of the Gotch's from Arthingworth. My mother's mother was Kathleen Gotch. Her father was Alfred Gotch who was born in Arthingworth on 30 January 1863.
I would be interested to learn where your family fit into the Arthingworth Gotch's.
Look forward to hearing from you.

Re: trying to find family
Ian I did not expect a reply so quickly.Alfred 1863 parents were Abraham Gotch and Matilda Lewin, his grandparents were John Gotch 1783 and Emma Miles. John had a brother Thomas Gotch 1783 who is my ancestor he is my Great x4 Grandfather, I hope I've got that right as my wife is the real expert on the family tree.We are now doing hopefully the definitive version of our family tree which includes the Arthingworth branch where it joins my family up to 1976, we are also joined in to the Cooper Gotch branch of the family which I am in the process of up loading onto the computer at the moment as it is all drawn out on paper at the moment.As of now the tree stands at 353 people and 126 families and goes back to Hugh Gouwch who died in 1522.If you need any more information please let me know Regards Keith

Re: trying to find family
Keith
I am Terry Gotch and am a descendant of Abraham Gotch and Matilda Lewin. My grandfather was John Lewin Gotch, Abraham's son. I have quite a few detailed trees and have had contact in the past with Ian Macintosh. I suspect some of the data you have is the from the same source as mine, but I would be interested to exchange details of my branch of the family with you.
Regards
Terry M Gotch

Re: trying to find family
Tara I recently started working on a tree and have between 3-4 generations so maybe you can start there. It is still a work in progress but hopefully if we connect to a couple of trees we can find our 6 degrees of separation so to speak.

Re: trying to find family
My grandparents moved from Germany in the Cold War, and my opa's last name was Gotsch. Does anyone know where I can get information about geneology from Germany? It's much easier to find American generations than the ones who are from overseas.

Re: trying to find family
I do have contacts in the Kiel area that may be of help. Do you know what area the came from ?
