My grandfather Shirrell
put together a genealogy of his family around the turn of the century
for his daughter Esther. It goes back to the Norman invasion. Eventually
I hope to have most of the material linked and up on the web.
|
My first wife Shreela was born in India- and though she lived in the
United States for 30 years , never took American citizenship. Her mother
and father each had many siblings and so I began to keep a record
of them which came in handy when we visited in 1977 and again after
Shreela's death in 1994.
|
My father came from the Netherlands
in the 1920s. His nephew Gerard
has been working on the history of the de Leeuws for some time now.
|
After my wife died in 1994
I met Barbara .We were married on June 21
1998 . Her family is from Detroit and Toronto. Her younger son Amahl
is in the Navy .He is married with 3 children
|
My sister Shirrell married Roald Buhler
- and they have 4 children
|
My brother Johan (Fell ) married Virginia Wolney
- they have 3 children
|
The format for the links is a standard HTML table. The parentage
of each person is on top... children at the bottom- along with any
notes. The font for each person is enlarged
|
The family is spread all over
the world.
There are Buhlers in New
Jersey, Seattle
and Australia.
de Leeuws range from Mexico
to Seattle,
Rochester,
and the Netherlands.
The Patnaiks and Rays are in India,
the United States
and the UK.
There are also connections with Zimbabwe
and Chile
