This page details information about the ancestors of Graeme Legg, please feel free to email me if related, or if you can supply corrections or additional information. (Not all of most recent information is on this website where the persons concerned are still living.) ~~~ Locations include New Zealand, South Australia, Ireland (Roscommon, Clare and Carlow), Ulster, England (Cornwall, Isles of Scilly, London & Berkshire areas) & Germany (Mecklenburg). Information sources include official certificates for recent events, parish records for some earlier events, old books, internet sites and extended family trees prepared by others (particularly those prepared by Lorna Lindsay for the Richards and Penno lines and Peter Smith for the Bray/Passmore lines with their extensions). The information on my ancestors is spread across ten entry pages for ease of download - this initial page provides an index of all ancestor surnames linking to tables detailing ancestry (each linking to the details of the concerned individual). The next page provides details up to grandparents (maternal) or great grandparents (paternal), a table of birth place distributions and a list of relevant external links. On subsequent pages are details of further ancestors past great grandparents - 2. Legg line from Isles of Scilly, England. 3. Grantham line from London & Berkshire areas, England. 4. Richards line from St Ives area in western Cornwall, England 4a.With an extension from Margaret Gaverigan in the 16th century to old Cornwall pedigreed families. 5.

With an off-shoot (Schrap) from Mecklenburg, Germany via Nelson, New Zealand and South Australia. 6 Beggs and Smyth from Belfast, Northern Ireland. 8.

For all descendants with the "Legg"
surname descended from a "Legg" from the Isles
of Scilly, I also maintain an Legg ancestry resource list page and an early Legg information page. If you are male and your surname is Legg
please see my genetics page to
establish if we are descended from the same "Legg"
ancestor. This page also covers results of our mitochrondrial
genetic testing for descent via
the female line (descended from the clan "Xenia"). For all descendants of my great great grandfather, Malachy Harney, from Oamaru, New Zealand, I maintain a resource, information, photos and contact page of Malachy's descendants |
