comments= I have traced my ancestors back to the above named Thomas Courtney who was born in Chittlehampton in Devon circa 1826. I know he died on the above date. I am having problems finding his records prior to 1851 census and would be interested to know if he is connected to your family society. If so, I would like to join the society and find more family connections further back. Are you able to advise me if he is connected and/or if you have records that I could [have] access to?
I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Kind regards,
lyn Langton

comments=Am I a Courtney or a Courtenay?
My aunt who has now died had a family history made but its whereabouts are unknown to me or my family.
I was told that our family name was de Courtney/Courtenay and that we were descended from French ancestors.
Ps-If I want to trace my family history can I do this through your society and how do I become a member?
regards Jason Courtney

comments=I am looking for the family and marriage for my great-great aunt, Annie Moore Shull Courtney. She was born in Frederick County, VA, 20 Apr. 1852 and died 19 Dec 1944. Courtney was her second marriage I believe and family story says that she lived in Puyallup, WA, however, she is buring in Shenandoah Co., VA in the Shull family plot. I would like to locate the name of the Courtney family she connects to and if there are any descendants of this line.
