Hello Carole
I've just read your comments. I wonder if most Voses mentioned so far being in USA is perhaps because people in US generally tend to be more curious/active than their
UK counterparts re geneological stuff? I googled '
Vose' out of curiosity (for some reason had vaguely assumed a 'French Connection' purely on linguistic grounds (?))since my maternal grandma's maiden name was
Vose (she married and became a Dougherty; I was also told by my ma that an earlier ancestor on her side was a Mary
Williamson from the county of
Fife in
Scotland). My grandmother and my ma (one of her daughters)lived in County
Durham (coalmining/shipfitter Catholic folk, it seems). I think you mentioned Voses connected to you haling from the north-west of
England - but not so very far from the north-east, I guess. I live in
Birmingham,
England, currently under the surname Trevallion. Take care and best wishes,
Michael
