My great Great Grandfather John Furze was born 1805 in Biggington, Devon and died in 1886,aged 82 years, at home on Lazy Bank Road, St. John's, Newfoundland, having come to Newfoundland 62 years earlier when he was 24 years.
children were:William 1854;Samuel 1857; William 1859;Elizabeth 1860;John 1838;Nicholas 1839; Nicholas Perry 1841;Mary 1842;Sarah ??//; Naomi 1854.
Naomi my great grandmother married in 1879 William John Marshall(GGF)who was a seamen hailing from Lanark, Glasgow, Scotland. Cannot trace the families back further than that they came from the "old country".
