Hi, I'm wondering if theres any connection,I too have been searching for a long time, & I have some data that indicates my dad was born in Barnesboro Pa, approx 1900, & his parents could have come from the UK, I found some shipping records that may have been theirs, if so they left from a place called Beeston, Notts. & went to usa, to settle in Barnesboro, My grandfathers name was John Hy Wall he was married to Lydia Hannah Wilmot according to my parents wedding certificate, and there was to my knowledge a daughter, and two sons then a half brother so something went wrong, my dad John william, left home quite young maybe thru the change in family circumstances, but he spoke of putting his age up and joining merchant navy.
to the best of my knowledge there was May, My dad John William, another brother possibly Harold & half brother George. I would be very pleased to hear from you.
