Family History

on 11th August 2000

As I gain more facts so the page grows. The details are changing nearly every week due to the great help I have received from other researchers on the net. My thanks to everyone who has helped me.

Please don't stop now!

I am now going to put the details on different pages, one for each side of the family and hopefully they will grow as I learn more.

When I first started this site little did I realise what I was starting. It has grown and grown and I have found out some interesting facts. Mum's family only moved to Devon in the mid 1800's, before that they were Cornish. They lived in the Landulph Parish of St. Germans, which is not far from Saltash. Some also lived in Redruth. These were connected with the mining industry, mainly as assayers but I think that there may have been an owner in there too.

My father's side are from Devon, mainly from Brixham, and were mostly mariners.

So far the main names I have information on, belonging in some way to our family, are..

SLEMON also spelt as SLEEMAN / SLEMAN / SLIMAN

and any number of other variations

BROWNING

DAVEY

DUGDALL
