Comments:Very interesting, my branch of the Linney family comes from Ashton under Lyne near Manchester England and seem to have been connected in the 1500's with the Linneys living not far away in Wilmslow, Cheshire. William is a family name that often recurrs. I am fortunate in that the Parish records survive back to 1570. As the name is unusual, it seem likely that the families are related at some point. Best wishes Chris

Comments:My grandfather, Daniel Linney grew up in Duntocher, Scotland, outside of Glasgow. He was a ship's carpenter who helped build the Queen Mary. He emigrated to Winnipeg, Canada in 1923, at the age of 27. There he married Gertrude Grant (nee Langton), a widow with four children. They had five more children together. He died at the age of 101, much revered by his family and community. His Scottish accent had mellowed but was still very much with him at the time of his death. He was an inspiration to all of us. His name (Daniel) lives on in many of the sons of his branch. I left Winnipeg for the San Francisco Bay Area in 1978 and have lived here ever since. Hope to visit Duntocher one day.

Comments:Thought I should say something about my family. No one in the family can say where Grandad Linney came from: He married Helen Woolam I assume in Liverpoolat about 1911/1912 he had six sons and two daughters, Thomas Linney borne about 1913, Emily James, Henry (my dad) sadly died 1986, Richard, Joseph,& Louise , One older brother died in infancy. My Grandad Henry Linney, fought in both of the wars he was too young to enlist in the WW 1 but managed somehow. He lost his sight in 1954 he, was a very talented man, he died in 1969. Thomas (Tucker) died 1963 James a few years later, Louise died two years after my dad.

I was born in 1968, but probably by the time James Earl Linney (my grandmother's cousin) gathered the info. and had it published in 1974, my family didn't provide updates.

Comments:On speaking to my father, i find that some of the details that i submitted were wrong, There was no Jack Lee Linney, but there was a Samuel Lee Linney, Ernest Lee Linney and Arthur Lee Linney. My Grandfather was Ernest Lee Linney His Children Included My Dad Joe Lee, My Uncle Alan Lee, Ian Lee, Maureen Lee, I've not seen maureen for around 15 years and cannot recall meeting her children. Uncle Alan and his family Auntie Jill, Scott, Tracy & Jodie are closest. I see Ian in bars around town quiet regular he has three children.Other family members were Uncle Ernie Deceased, Uncle Yagga Deceased and Auntie Nancy Deceased they all died within a week of each other, they had children and grandchildren that i have never met. Would like to get all my branch around a table some time for a good chat, hope it happens before i'm an old man

Sounds as if linney is related to "lean to." Saw my husband's grandfather listed as a boy in the British 1881 census courtesy of the local Latter Day Saints Family History Center. They had it on CD.

My grandparents owned the house that used to be owned by the Fergusons. That house is haunted!!! I would pitch fits if someone left me in a room alone in that house. I was just skimming across the internet looking for information about the house because I recently visited the place again and found some old post cards with pictures of the house on them.
