Find Family
I am researching the family histories of my husband and myself.

My names include: COLLETT, DYER, CARTER, GOODALL& BRIDGES. We hail mostly from England although there were emigrants to North America in every century from the 15th. Our roots are mainly in Oxfordshire and Suffolk.

Glenn's roots are pretty well established in the United States,although one or two branches moved to Canada early and then again late in the 1800's. Ancestral names include: GELETTE/GILLETT, ELLIS, BUCHANAN, WISE & McLAUGHLIN. Glenn's ggrandfather was Montreville Willard Gelette/Gillett born in 1844 in Warsaw, Hancock Co. Illinois. He served in the 2nd Wisconsin Cavalry during the Civil War. His wife was Mary Susan Ellis/Elles for whom I have a good family history.I would welcome any information on the parents of this elusive man. Glenn's grandfather was Oscar Phillip, born in Abilene, Texas in 1881. My husband and his father Clarence were both born in Shellbrook, Saskatchewan.
