Churchill * Foerst
* Wyman * McKindley * McLean Contact the genealogist PHOTOS Last Name Index Home page My family goes back to Thomas Churchill, born in 1474 in England. His great-grandson John Churchill crossed the ocean to Plymouth, Massachusetts around 1643. He married Hannah Pontus, whose family is traced back to the 1500’s. I have new information about the Larkin and Doane family trees, my ancestors in Nova Scotia. One of my direct ancestors is John McKindley who lived in Galway, New York in 1774. He came over from Scotland with his brother Moses McKindley. I can trace my mother's roots back to William McLean, who was probably born around 1730 or 1740. As an adult, he lived in Trenton, New Jersey, where his son Francis was born. One of my ancestors was Martin Luther, who was born in Germany in 1483. His grandfather was Heine Luder, born in the early 1400's. My great grandfather, Julius Franz Foerst, served in the Prussian army. Some of the pictures are available here, in the PHOTO GALLERY.

Perhaps this web site will be useful or interesting to my family, my distant relatives, and anyone who appreciates genealogical research. I was lucky, most of this information was easily available because others had gone digging for it. My grandmother McKindley traveled around looking for cousins, grave markers, or anything else she could find about her family. Some people in past generations kept photo albums which I have been privileged to see. There is a museum in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia, which collects Churchill history.
