Hi My name is Kevin William Lumb, born in Hackney, London in 1956 I am in the UK at present but live in Florida, my family originate from Yorkshire I beleive.
I have only just started on this quest and have only managed to find my grandad James William Ewatr Lumb who married Mary Flint in Eastbourne Sussex UK in 1921.
My father John Alfred was born in Hull and had a sister Eva and two brothers Harry and Geoffrey tells me his Grandfater ownrd a Shipwright business in Whitgift, Yorkshire and the business was called G. Lumb & Sons, this is as far as I have got.
As you say there are not too many Lumbs and we are possibly related, so I would be pleased to hear from you, my email is
