'G'reat Stumbling Blocks

Gamage: Sir Thomas and daughter Joan were likely from Wales. Everything is needed!

Gassman: Verena Gassman married Andreas Rinker. See above! /

Gaymer: Richard and Margaret [Mason] Gaymer were the parents of  Lydia who was born in Essex and came to America where she married John "The Elder" Turner on 10 November 1645 in Plymouth. A lot needed.

Geater: Martha Geater/Goater married Thomas Penford in St. Thomas, Portsmouth, Hampshire, England on 26 December 1667. Any additional information would definitely be a plus.

Gifford: Sarah Gifford was the daughter of John Gifford. I have bits and pieces on them that need to be verified; including John's parents.

Godespayne: Early Wakeman records show that William married a Godespayne about 1465 in Drayton, England. Talk about missing details!

Goode: Anne Goode Wakeman's father was Henry. His vitals and spouse are needed for starters. [Worcestershire, England]

Gorton: Three very early generations of Thomases need vitals. Samuel, John and Samuel [we have now left Lancashire and London for Rhode Island in the mid-1600s] also need a few BMDs filled in. The last in my line Anna, needs a death date.

Grant: I have four generations of Grants with little or no data about them. The family was from Cottingham and/or Hessle, Yorkshire, England. Generation 5 - Thamas - settled in Rowley, MA. Daughter Hannah married into the Hazen line.

Greeley: Andrew Greeley Sr. needs to be fleshed out a bit. For example, where in England did the family originate? Andrew Jr.'s story is pretty solid. Likewise for daughter Mary.

Greene: The Rhode Island family was from Dorset and Wiltshire. The earliest generations need to be fleshed out considerably. Once the family makes it to the colonies, records are relative complete. [General Nathaniel Greene is a distant cousin.]

Gye: My 3 generation Gye family needs a few vitals and biographical info to flesh them out.
