John FENN 5/22/06
Just browsing the forum messages and happened upon this string of interesting posts. It appears to me that we are related thru Thomas Fenn (b. July 1838). His older sister, Elizabeth, would be my great-great-great-great grandmother.

William John Fenn Graves (He kept his grandfathers name)

Came to US in 1871 with his mother's father, William Fenn and an uncle, George Fenn. He settled in Willowdale Township, Dickinson County, Kansas, USA. His mother, Elizabeth, later came to the US and is buried at the cemetary in Solomon, KS. He married Lucretia Turner (born 1/27/1851, 12 Princess Street, Marylebone, England) a childhood sweetheart, on 11/26/1874. They had 8 children, 2 died in infancy. His first wife died on 6/28/1915.
