From T Stoddard

Hello to this group, please may we together continue this research.

I received my information and histories personally from Effie Lenore Wiser when I went to visit her in Logan, Utah; and have the histories submitted to the ‘Daughters of the Utah Pioneers’ .
I also have the research, deeds and etc., that Lana Whiting completed on the Telfords before her death. I have a book titled “Connecting: The conn- Cowen- Greenaway Families’ from County Armagh to Upper Canada” that I think may be applicable because our families came from Anna Telford daughter of John and Jane Telford, who were cousins and she married Charles Henry Stoddard.

I live in Montana and my son, Theron, is coming from Utah this week-end and will be glad to share a picture of the ‘old Telford home’ in Armagh, Ireland, IF someone is interested.

We descend from Anna Telford daughter of John Telford, son of George Telford son of James Telford, son of William Telford. 
Telfords names, Thelford,, Thelford, Thettford of Belfast, Thetlford, Threlford, Telfair, and Trafford,.

I also have some partial histories of Caroline Saville Telford whom we met several years ago and include the Woodmansee’s. Caroline married John Eli Telford.

Sincerely,
T. Stoddard

Laurence, Thank you for your analysis. I am glad someone with analytical skills is watching this line. I’ve often wanted to investigate this line, but have not had the time. It could benefit from extensive old world research with the possibility of putting together an indirect proof of parentage. Here are a few thoughts on the sources: AGBI is an index to published sources. Rather than believe what Ancestry puts on the screen, we need to access the referenced source and see for ourselves what it has to say and what sources it cites. It appears to be https://www.familysearch.org/ search/catalog/45751 . Millennium File and the Family Data Collections were collections of unsourced family group sheets acquired by Ancestry. Both are no better sources than what you find on any other unsourced family group sheet. Membership of The Church of … is another compiled source. If I’m not mistaken, Ancestral File was one of her sources. If she doesn’t specify her s

Introduction

In order to introduce myself I will give you my relationship to John and Jane Telford. My father was Ivin Lafayette Gee.  He was the son of William Erastus Gee whose mother was Geneva Eleanor Telford the daughter of John Dodds Telford and the granddaughter of John and Jane Telford cousins who married in Ireland and came to Canada and encountered the missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints, went to Kirtland and then to Missouri and then to Nauvoo and then to Utah.  This Blog is created to provide dialog on the family of Jane and John and to help stimulate research.  There is room at the bottom of each post for comments.  We encourage you to use these as a means of communication, questions, thoughts and sources that you have found. We want to correct the errors on Family Search Family Tree with the best information available.

My ancestor was their daughter, Eliza Victoria Telford, who married John McCarthy. He was living with the Anson Call family, who lived across the street from the Telfords.
