my interest in the family tree is just beginning to sprout. I've only
gone back to this point to the Civil war era where 5 of my gr, gr, uncles (all
brothers) participated in the war and all returned. The geographic location above is where
my grandparents and parents were born and raised.

My line of the Griffins hail from Wales, through upstate New York, the
Canandaigua area. My immediate forefathers are from NW Ohio. I have not had good
luck attempting to research backwards, out of Ohio, but am very interested in doing so
if anyone has a line on information.

Thanks for hosting this site!

I am not a Griffin, however I am searching for family members of the late English Griffin or Cassie L (Reed) Griffin. They were married 3-4-1961 in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Mr. Griffin was a very close family member and when he passed he left his estate to my grandmother. My grandmother has since passed and I have a few personal items that I think his family may be interested in having (especially those interested in family history).

Please contact me by e-mail

Greetings to all the Griffins worldwide. Nice to belong to such a large clan. My family comes from Stranorlar, County Donegal in Ireland. The Griffin family motto is "Ne vile velis" (Wish for nothing vile). The earliest reference to an Irish Griffin that I can find is from 12th Century when one of our ancestors was tutor to the son of the High King of Ireland. Obviously we are a very intelligent family!

It has recently come to my attention that my biological last name is Griffin. I was wondering where can I start looking to find my family history. This is on my fathers side. All I know of him is that he and his close family are in California. He died before I could meet him. If you can help me I would love it!

Good morning members of the Griffin Family tree!
I am trying to locate the Griffin members from my grandfather's family tree. His name was Harry Pearl Griffin, son of Jas (James?) and Rebecca Powell Griffin. He and my grandmother, Ruth Earnest, were married June 9, 1910. The Washington County Kansas courthouse marriage license has his age at that time to be 28 and his nationality registered as English. My grandparents met in Topeka where they may have both been working at the Topeka Industrial School. My grandparents had 2 sons, Matthew Murdy, that died as an infant, and my father, Harry Griffin who passed away in 1992. After a bitter divorce, around 1915, my grandfather was no longer heard from. I have attempted unsuccessfully over the last 15 years to locate information on his family. My family would love to believe he went on to lead a successful and happy life. As he came from the Topeka Kansas area, we are hoping there may have been other family members that lived close at the time.
Since my grandmother would not discuss the situation, we have virtually nothing to go on. Someday, I hope to make it back to Topeka to do a census search. If anyone has information I would surely appreciate it.

Thank you for a great site. Catherine Hickman Tustison is my g,g,g grandmother. Your bio on her mother Catherine Sherer Hickman has great importance to me, because it discusses her expertise in fiber arts. I have in my possession a woven counter pane that she and her daughter Catherine made. I'm sure it was for Catherines wedding trunk as the subject matter is George Washington and she married George Washington Tustison. The coverlet is in very nice condition and I value it greatly. The weaving and colors are exquisite. It was given to me by Charles Cornelius Tustison's daughter Florence Ethel Tustison Stoll a few years before her death.

I am looking for my birthmother ELEANOR E. GRIFFIN.
She was married to my father James Patrick Lynch between 1945-55. I do not have more information, my father died in 1977.
Unfortunately my mother left our home but she is married twice. We lived in Jersey City until 1955.
I would like to know if she is still living and whether she lives in Jersey.
And would like to know if she has siblings who have childrens who could be my cousins or other relatives.
Probably Eleanor is born around 1925 ...
I would be appreciate if somebody has anything on Griffin line in Jersey or anywhere.

I can extend the family for two more generations of younger ones if you would like me to.
My daughter-in-law, Michelle, who is the wife of William Kelley Alexander, is looking for evidence of our Cherokee ancestry as well as her family. Muriel used to tell me that her grandmother was a full-blood Cherokee. I don't know what her grandmother's name was and if, in fact, she really was a full-blood Cherokee. Thanks for your information.
