marbra on Family Tree Circles

This OTT family I have researched back to 1700's.
The earliest that I have found is Johan Martin married Maria Catharina Schauerin.Martin was a day labourer.Their child Johan Jacob b.1799 married Maria Barbara Kern.Jacob was a citizen/weaver.Maria's parents were Jacob Kern and Dorothea Frizen,Jacob was a grand citizen/weaver.
Johan Jacob and Maria Barbara had two sons and a daughter and Maria had a daughter Anna Magdalene Kern.The sons were Johan Jacob b.1830,Johan Georg b. 1831.Maria Barbara b. 1832.
Johan Jacob and wife Frederike Greneger emigrated to New Zealand in the early 1850's,Jacob was employed by the North German mission as a shoemaker, to make shoes for the Maoris on a small island at the bottom of New Zealand.The island was Ruapuke Island.Apparently he made very good shoes and people would travel from the mainland(South Island of New Zealand)to get shoes from him.He financed his brother and sister to N.Z. in 1857.His brother was a tailor and did very well with his trade in N.Z.His descendents still live in the south island of N.Z.
Jacob did so well with his shoemaking that he was able to get his own pub in Lornville,just outside Invercargill.Unforunately he died in 1876 just 46yrs old.The same year the family lost their only little daughter Louisa Marie-10months and youngest son George Frederik age 5yrs Although Frederike lived to a good age she had been committed to a pychiatric hospital since 1878.Jacob and Frederike had other sons.They were Alfred William b.1870,Charles Jacob b.1871,Henry Edward b. 1872,Francis b. 1875.
Alfred M.Margaret Philip 1905 2 children
Charles M.Eiza Pullinger 1890
Henry M.Rosabella Lukey 1910
Francis M.Eleanor McMechan 1897

My PHILIP connection is from my mother.Her mother was a Philip.

William Philip and wife Caroline(Lennie)emigrated to New Zealand in 1879 with 9 children.They had one more in N.Z. Margaret, my grandmother.
I have information on some of the Philip's in N.Z.and information on my mother's father who was Alfred William Ott.

Through a family member seeing my earlier post re Ernest Herbert Montague Saunders we have been able to connect Ernest to her researched Saunders family.
The family member that I was doing this research for is very happy as he didn't know anything of his father's history.

This family of SPEEDEN's were originally from Linlithgow in Scotland.They are now settled in New Zealand.The family has their tree back to 1730.They own a very successful mushroom farm in N.Z.

Researching for friends. This Unkovich family emigrated to New Zealand in the late 19th century from Racisce on the island of Korcula,Dalmatia (now Croatia)in what was then Austro-Hungarian Empire.They were probably fishermen.They settled in Northland where they became gum diggers. (Kauri gum was harvested from the swamps.) Later some were farmers whilst others became wine makers etc.

History uncovered says that it is possible that Unkovich's could be originally from Belarus.

There seems to be just one family of Unkovich living in Racisce now as other families went to U.S.A and Western Australia.

The surname WARREN fits into my tree several generations back.Mary Ann Warren married Alfred George Woodcock 29//11/1847 in Bordesley Warwickshire,England.Alfred and Mary Ann's daughter Mary Ann Woodcock married Herbert Wilson 1874 in New Zealand.They were my great grand parents on my fathers side.
Although I don't know if they are connected to the Warrens of Surrey who were Earls of Surrey dating back to 1300's,I do know that in the family were silversmiths,locksmiths,clockmakers and bell hangers.

My WILSON family emigrated to New Zealand from Donington on Bain Lincolnshire in the 1800's.They they were from the Black Horse Inn.Their father Moses, was the Innkeeper, who was born at Bishop Norton.Their mother Sophia Enderby.Moses's father was John and mother Sarah.John's parents were Thomas Wilson and Mary Graves.Thomas and Mary were married at Tealby 3/7/1753 and they lived at Bishop Norton.
Four sons and a daughter of Moses, left their home because they couldn't get on with their step-father.
Have been unable to establish any history on Thomas.

At this time a Wilson owns the Black Horse Inn but says there is no connection.

I have found a line back to 1600's now.

Our WILSON family emigrated from Lincolnshire England to New Zealand in the 1800's.
A lot of research was done in the 1960-1970's by a cousin Nell McGillivray.Quite a few of the family will be familiar with the first booklet she produced called The Wilson's in New Zealand-4 and 1.She also went to Lincolnshire and did research.After which she produced a further booklet called Kith and Kin -Lincolnshire.So our family has been very lucky to have all this knowledge.

It appears that the family had resided in Bishop Norton for several generations.

I have a possible line; Richard b.1608c M.Elizabeth Barnabie b.1612c M. at St Marks lincoln 5/6/1634.
Child : Richard b.1635(St.Marks) M. Mary ??
Children : John b.25/2/1671
Richard b.4/1/1675 @ Blyton M. Elizabeth Pannell b. Bishop Norton 13/1/1699
Children: Richard B.4/1/1700
William and Mary b. 10/2/1725
Thomas b.30/4/1732 M.Mary Graves @ Tealby 3/7/1753
I have the family tree from there forward.

I would like to find a connection to the Gunn Clan.In my family it was told that we were from the Gunn Clan.

It would appear(through DNA testing) that my WILSON family originated in Ireland. Sometime and several times during 150 AD to 800 AD during wars between Ireland and Scotland peoples from Ireland settled and intermarried with the local Scots and Picts..Firstly probably around what is now Ayr and spreading out from there.

From research the Wilson name could have been Uilleam (gaelic)then anglicised.

My Wilson's are traced from New Zealand(emigrated 1800's) to Lincolnshire(moved there 1600's) although other family members were already there.
They moved from Scotland to Lincolnshire, probably stopping on the way at Penrith.
