Search for more information. I was born in 1932. My Mothers maiden name was Mary McLaclan Drysdale and my Fathers, Hubert Conrad Gregory. My Father was born in the Soundwell area of south Gloucestershire and my Mother in Glasgow. My Grandfather was a James Gregory whi was born in Everton in 1968 to a John Gregory and a Sarah nee' Newman. Sarah was born in the Bitton area of South Gloucestershire where most of the immediate family resided. John was born in Bitton in 1843 to A James Gregory and a Mary Naish. It is believed that both were born in Poulton, Somerset around 1808. James was a renowned Engineer in the Kingswood area of Bristol, manufacturing horizontal steam pumping engines and winding gear for the local coal mines. I would like to find out why my Great Grandfather John and his wife Sarah moved to Everton for a short while and his death, of which I have no knowledge. He appears to have gone missing from the family home around 1883. If possible I would like to contact any living relatives of either James or John and possibly confirm the link with Poulton. For information I am a professionally qualified structural design engineer. Posted By John James Conrad Gregory on 10/18/2008 1:12:35 PM.  1 Replies.  Last reply on 7/3/2009 1:26:01 PM

Unofficial Responses Hi, I dont know if you have had any response to your enquiry, but I have been researching the Gregory family tree for over 10 years and had always wondered what happened to James and Sarah.  My grandfather Wilfred Gregory was the son of Alfred and Kate (nee Britton).  Alfred was born to John Gregory and Sarah Newman and John was born to James and Mary Naish.  Mary was his second wife, his first wife being Sarah Naish. I would love to hear from you. Lindsay Lindsay Gregory on  7/3/2009 1:26:01 PM What do you think?  Enter your comments here. Name   E-Mail    Message Body
