Welcome to my website dealing with my One-Name Study into the Twyman surname.  Detailed herein will be details of varying lines of Twymans I've researched from all over the world - from the UK, to the United States, to Canada, to New Zealand, to Australia, and beyond.  Herein you'll also find transcriptions of original documents, and much much more.

Please find above, also, a link to this site's web-forum to allow all to discuss information pertinent to the Twyman families.  Please drop in and join and discuss anything from the Twymans, to family history in general, to all those random little things.

Updates

5-Feb-2012: I've started an overhaul of the passenger lists section, making things much more logical and adding a number of records that have been floating on my pen-drive for a good few years.  Today I bring records of entries into Canada, as well as the start of a number of sets for entries into the US.

4-Feb-2012: As promised, the last set of parish register transcriptions for London have been uploaded to that section.  As usual, follow the green or yellow tags for the new or updated parishes.  There will be one further update, but that will just be bringing cosmetic changes to the index for the registers so won't be announced.

2-Feb-2012: I've uploaded the last of the burials for the London parish registers.  Remaining now is a single update to take the registers back a little further, and I hope to add those in the coming days.

Also I bring a new section to the site, intended to cover poor law records.  At this time there's not much there (just a few records from deaths in the London workhouses), but I hope to have a look through other records and update in the coming months.
