Hi List.

I am posting the following reports that are on my website
http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/n/Brian-Jones/
in the hope that someone can make a connection with these branches of two Dorset families who emigrated to Newfoundland in the 19th century.

Genealogy Report: Descendants of William Spencer

Genealogy Report: Descendants of John Ffoote


The Newfoundland families start with ROBERT SPENCER born 1841 in Sturminster Newton, Dorset and died 1899 in Harbour Breton, Newfoundland and EMMANUEL FOOTE born 1840 in Manston, Dorset and died 1913 in Harbour Breton, Newfoundland.

The following story, which is also on my website
http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/j/o/n/Brian-Jones/
may interest someone whose family left Dorset to settle in Harbour Breton in the 19th century. This tale is based on 95% fact and 5% poetic licence.

The Spencers of Newfoundland

Looking foreward to hearing from someone.

Regards,
Brian
