Nancy,

My name is Trudy Steinhauer and my maiden name was Kaufman. We may be cousins if your father was Jackie (John) Funfare and your mother Della Mae Funfare. I see you posted this in 2011 and although I've just recently gotten into Ancestry.com I've discovered a lot about my own family as well as that of my husband. My mother was Gertrude Kaufman and my father Percy Kaufman. I hope you get this message ~ who knows? Trudy

Hello Gary - thank you for your message. I feel that this is John Phillip Traylen who became a GP in Northampton and died in his 80s. He served in WW1 and won the Military Cross. I hope this is helpful! - James

Thanks for coming back...everyone seems to be hitting abrick wall with Francis in 1760. I am linked as well via Thomas b 1840 he was my G G Grandfather

Re: TRAYLEN

jeantraylen — 2010-05-06 08:36:55Z

I have just found your query,I am also looking for Traylens. My side seem to all be centered around Lambeth. I have traced them back to Francis 1760 from Ramsden Bellhouse but can't fined anything before that.
Appear to have some connection to traylen funfare via Thomas Traylen 1840.
regards Jean.

Re: TRAYLEN - MILITARY - GREAT WAR

Dorrie_Ridgway — 2010-02-06 10:33:19Z

Not connected with the Great War but you asked where the name originated. During my research the earliest I have found is in a will of Nicholas Trayland of Finchingield in Essex, (Cooper)dated 25th January 1627. In the parish records his proven offspring were recorded variously as Trayloe, Trayling, Trayland. The priest wrote down what he thought he heard! etc. Regards. Dorrie

Re: Tralen/Traylen

Dorrie_Ridgway — 2010-01-31 17:51:23Z

Long Story which really belongs to Brian Jones whom I shall contact and ask permission to reveal to you what happened to them all. Mr Jones has not been working on his family for a while and although I Know his Family names etc and I also have a few records and photographs I think I must ask if he would like me to do this for him. Please give me a few days to organise this. Regards Dorrie

Hi,
Back in the late 1980's my father Peter Traylen sent off for a family tree search. Can't find the certificate they sent. But I do remember their conclusion that a Jane Traylen was married at Toppesfield church around that era.

do you think the name 'traylen' evolved from 'trayling' or something similar. i have always wondered what the name meant and where it came from.

I have just found this site and was interested to read about the Traylens from Essex/Suffolk. My dad is called Roger John Traylen and he was born in Northampton. His father was Dr. J.P.Traylen who was awarded the Millitary Cross in WW1.

I have just found this board and was interested to read that several of the Traylen's mentioned are (I think) connected with mine.

My Great, Great, Great Grandmother was Elizabeth Taylor Traylen born in Thurlow in Suffolk but the family was from Toppesfield in Essex.

I would be interested in comparing/swapping information with anyone who has an interest in this surname

Re: TRAYLEN

2002-09-20 21:27:47Z

Katie,

I know your grandfather and often buy books from him. You and he are my distant cousins.

Your grandfather is descended from Joseph Traylen, who was the son of John Traylen of Old Weston and the brother of William Lynch Traylen. William Lynch's son John Charles was the architect (of Stamford) that you mention, and John Charles was my great grandfather. My own grandfather was Dr Charles Leonard Traylen.

Do get in touch. My email address is my wife's - alison@hampton2.demon.co.uk.

Re: TRAYLEN

2002-09-19 17:00:16Z

Dear Katie :

What a nice surprise to hear from you !! I have heard of
Charles Traylen - some years ago someone in England
told me of an antique book store in Guildford owned by
a Traylen.

Frank Traylen was my grandfather - he owned a business
on Kings Rd., Chelsea. Is there a connection between
Frank and Charles Traylen ?

I do have my side of the family tree right back to a
Samuel Traylen in 1696 if it is of interest to you. During
the 1990's I did alot of work on it. I wouldn't say it was
complete and I am always happy to find out more. I can
send it by snailmail if you let me have your address.

I am at : 45948 Lake Drive, Chilliwack, British Columbia,
Canada V2R 3T3

All the best - Jean

Re: TRAYLEN

2002-09-19 10:51:40Z

My maiden name is Traylen and my grandfather is Charles Traylen who runs a business in Guildford and is aged 96.
I believe he is related to the Traylen who was architect of Stamford, Lincolnshire and had later relatives who were butchers in Cambridge.

I have a distant ancestor a Rebecca TRAYLEN who was born approx 1726 (year of birth based on age at death), she married John (R)Uggles in Toppefield on June 26, 1748. Would love info on her parents if you have.

Yvonne

Rebecca Traylen - Essex UK

yvonne_elsdon — 2002-07-28 02:15:17Z

My family tree includes a Rebecca TRAYLEN who married a John UGGLES on the 26th of June 1748 in Toppesfield Essex UK. Not sure if the surname of her husband isn't RUGGLES not UGGLES.

I would guess that she was born in between 1725 and 1732. She died in Toppesfield in 1815.

Does this fit in with anyone's research?

both awarded the M.C., to a family tree prepared by Dorrie Ridgway, This tree I would be happy to examine for other Traylen

Thankyou

Re: TRAYLEN

Hi,

I have just been reading your message inregards your Grandfather Frank. I am related to the Traylens and have information regards our branch which includes the Traylen Fair which is still working, I seem to come from Francis Traylen b 1760 m Mary Plow.

Anyway, I noticed you said that your Grandfather owned a shop in Chelsea. I have been trying to find out about this shop and its relation to our branch of the tree. The reason being that my mum picked up a print book from a car boot sale of a local london paper from 1921 which has adverts for a Frank Traylens shop in Kings Road , Chelsea.

I was wondering if you have any info on the business and your grandfathers parents so I can see if and where we all fit in.

Thank you

I am researching the Traylen family (Alfred and Rosetta) who appear in the Channel islands census of the 1880s - there were several children but no-one seems to appear on the 1901 census - I wondered if they'd emigrated to the US. can anyone help?

Re: TRAYLEN - MILITARY - GREAT WAR

JeremyTraylen — 2009-07-16 22:18:50Z

Dr JP Traylen is my paternal grandfather. I understand he was born in India where the family lived c1900. He had three sons, Christopher, Patrick and Roger (only surviving).
Roger and Patrick had issue.
Roger is as you know Jan Thomson's father (Hi if you are reading this).
Patrick is my father, and settled in New Zealand.
I understand that a Hazel Traylen is currently researching our family tree.
I would certainly be interested in knowing more as I have seen my mother's family tree back to the 16th century but know nothing of my father's line.

Re: Tralen/Traylen

triplel114 — 2007-01-09 00:40:16Z

I have Trayling ancestors in Canada as early as 1857. They hail from England (possibly Kent). Earliest known is William Joseph who had sons Joseph, Alphonse, John, Arthur and Fredrick. The next generations have a number of Alberts, but no Alfreds. Keep in touch if any connections.

Hi Jeremy, thank you for your message. My Traylings hail from Ireland - William Henry b 1815 and were in Canada in 1854. No India or NZ links to my knowledge. Will keep your note on file for future connections . . .

Re: Traylen's

triplel114 — 2008-03-04 01:27:16Z

Hi. I'm sure there's a connection - too many similar names not to be. However, no direct matches:
William Henry Trayling b 1815 Ireland, married to Bridget O'Sullivan, b 1832 (Ireland?). Their children included:
Elizabeth b 1854
Ellen b 1855
William Joseph b 1857
James A. b 1859
John J. b 1864
Albert Francis 1868
Emma 1869
Arthur Joseph b 1871

Please contact me directly at triple.L@shaw.ca if we have a connection. Thanks. Leslie

Hello Jean
(I have e-mailed you separately with more details than this)
My father was Frank Whitwell Traylen, son of Alfred Frank and Gloria Louise Traylen. Alfred Traylen was son of Frank Whitwell Traylen (I guess) as he was the brother of Norman Algernon Traylen and two sisters. This means that you might be my (previously unknown) Aunt, which I find rather exciting. Please reply to my e-mail or reply to this - I will check both at least once a day.
Regards

Traylen/Trayling

2000-02-11 11:19:01Z

I have been researching the name Traylen for about 20 years. My immediate family originate from Stamford in Lincolnshire by way of Sibson in Northamptonshire. During my researches I have found several Traylens in Essex and Cambridgeshire and Suffolk and I, too, have noticed that the spelling can vary.

My mother's maiden name was Elizabeth Kilby Traylen, my grandfather was Charles Leonard Traylen, and his father was John Charles Traylen (architect, of Stamford). JCT's father was William Lynch Traylen, a farmer from Sibson, and HIS father was John Traylen of Old Weston and also Great Catford, Huntingdonshire.

I believe that there is a connection with Newport in Essex (Christopher Traylen) but I haven't made any real progress with finding out where my family lived prior to the early nineteenth century.
