Hi Ann,
Everything to do with Gufficks is of interest to me the only thing is I only look into it occasionally and thus don't get very far. Can you see anything on this site from Jacky Hattam?. If so she might be of greater help to you than I can and names she mentions seem to tie us all together somehow. I had hoped to meet her when she was here in Cornwall but that never came off. I can't believe we are not related somewhere along the line as our name is quite unique.My Grandad was William Atterbury Guffick who lived in Fulford and worked at York Post office. He married twice and my dad Reginald and brother George and sis Gladys were all from that marriage. When he re-married (to Annie) they had two further children, William (deceased & Mary who is 90 and still alive and kicking in Dringhouses. We seem to originate from Pickering/Thornton area.
Check out Norman Guffick if you can as he started a website
which I cannot find anymore but that went back to Pickering and he reckoned we were distant cousins allthough his branch went to Hartlepool whereas mine went York.
If you find anything please let me know and if you like you can e-mail me direct on
mikeguffick@hotmail.com or I am on facebook (don't use it much but look everyday).
Have a happy new year and keep searching
Kind regards Mike & Sally Guffick
