Welcome to the future home of the Hargest & Hergest One Name study.This web site Hargest.Name will aim to be a genealogy and ancestry family tree resource for all Hargest & Hergest's worldwide.With the eventual intended goal if it is at all humanly possible, of the creation of a greater "Hargest & Hergest" family tree,from which all the "Hargest & Hergest's" families worldwide, would stem.Created by a descendant of the Hargest family based in the United Kingdom researching the origins of the Hargest name.Who is a member of the Guild of One Name Studies and the Society of Genealogists of the United Kingdom.
To find out more about my research please click on this link Hargest-Hergest One Name Study.
Currently I have transcribed all the Birth,Marriage and Death records held at the General Record Office for England & Wales from 1837-2003.Between the years 1837-1911 I have either purchased or have copies of every registered male Hargest or Hergest Marriage certificates.During that period of time,there where 255 registered Hargest/Hergest marriages of either gender in England and Wales.I am now trying to finalise my research by trying to purchase all the remainder female Hargest & Hergest Marriage certificates.The cost of each certificate from the United Kingdoms Government website costs me £7 per certificate.All I am asking for those of you who wish to contribute money is £7.I am not looking to make a profit,I'm just trying to cover my costs.
If you would like to contribute to this project please make a donation towards the purchase of certificates by clicking the Donate button below.
In the mean time a Hargest & Hergest message board on rootsweb has been created for Hargest & Hergest's worldwide interested in collaborating or discussing various family links and points of mutual interest relevant to the Hargest name and its origins, its address is
