Upon the following pages will appear several photographs of family. Because geneologies
can be voluminous and confusing, some parameters and definition becomes necessary. Since defining family has to start somewhere with every family tree having branches that can make
the trail confusing, we will attempt some organization.I might note from the outset that this is in no way an attempt to create a pure geneological record, but rather to simply gather together sundry pictures
and place them in some order on a website so others can view them. Accordingly, I, George Philip Walmsley, Jr. will cause the various relations to flow around my relationship to or from them. In my opinion
this may help persons to better see their relationship by focusing on me.
A BACKGROUND NOTE: In 1946, my Aunt Mabel V. French took me to Prince Edward Island, Canada to visit relatives. I was 9 years
old. We were living in Philadelphia, Pa. at the time and traveled by train all the way. That included crossing the North Umberland Strait on a ferry while still on board the train. I now live in Naples,
Florida and in recent years decided too many years had passed since getting back in touch with this side of the family. This trip in 1946 was more than a vacation. It was to put me in touch with the "Burns" side of my
family. It did that. We stayed for the most part at Uncle Roy and Aunt Belle's farm in Freetown and a short stay at one of Aunt Mabel's favorite places, the Shaw Hotel at Brackley Beach. |

Without concluding that in any way the photo's and information found here are complete, we find several names that weave in and out of these linages that we can call family. While
most of this work will deal with my father and mother's lines, other family members are present as well. While this is a start, hopefully a more comprehensive picture will form in time. |

Among the names we find here, Burns, which on my mother's side at least, seems to be the fountainhead from my available pictures and information with common threads that flow
forward on this side of my family. Among the others we find Copeland, Simmons, Cameron, Dammarell, DeLong, French, MacKenzie, Marchbank, Moase', Reeves, Stavert, Gallant, Schilling, MacDonald, Hogg, Maxwell,
Baxter, Baldwin to name just a few. On my father's side we find Sailer, Fox, Mattson, Nettleton, Wamsley, Walmsley, Ogden, , Ford, Eaise, Lange, Butler, Garner, Gehrum, Mitchell, & Gumpper. No doubt this
will be added too as this is little more than an initial attempt. Surely others exist as I write this and the list goes on.Of course pictures and some information will be found on more than one page since families
open new branches in life and share life across those family lines often. Enjoy! |
