The site was originally written and published way back
in August 2004, to publish my Family History. There have
been minor updates both to the design and the F/H content,
but not for some time.
I have rewritten both using some of the latest
techniques and substantial updates to my family genealogy.
Within my ability I have made use of XHTML, CSS,
JavaScript, jQuery, and hope you find it of
interest. I preferred to write in HTML/CSS
coding, rather than rely on Web Publishing programs.
Randall Family History - Developments
Major updates are now in place, and anyone who in the
past has used my information to import into their
tree, should check for changes, mainly in the
"Randall,Cutler and Pain Families".
The original reason was to trace my paternal
G.G.Grandfather Thomas Rand(e)all's birth and parish.
Born probably in Dorset in 1806, we have been
unable to trace.
He married an Ann Cutler Payne (b. 27/7/1806 at
Athelhampton, Dorset) at Nether Cerne on the 3rd of
September 1827.
A Mary Randall married in the same church some months
earlier.I have not been able to identify a connection.
Other reasons for building my Website
I hope existing researchers may find my information
helpful and useful to them.
You never know, there may be someone out there, sitting
on details of my G.G.Grandfather Thomas Randall's birth.
Having added dozens of Randall Family names taken from
the 1911 Census, mainly in London area, I am hoping that
one of them may have been lucky and have had their family
papers passed down to them.
I hope that new visitors to Genealogy may find my site
useful for pursuing their own family trees.
Finally those that may have thought of developing their
own web sites, may find my attempts, hopefully confirmation
that most people can achieve a reasonable standard.
Good Luck and happy hunting. Please let me know if
there is a connection.
