• History - browse the history and document pages for further information on specific individuals and family lines e.g. Baglin, Burgess, Jenner, Russ, Stickler, Thomas Arthur VC, and George Burgess etc, and the Photo Albums for family photos and gravestones.

• Local Links - Links to key pages on Nathanville.
• Linked Family Trees - Web Links to other family trees that overlap with Nathanville e.g. the Rutter Family Tree that links with the Baglin's on the Nathanville Family Tree.

English Roots My Son If your ancestors are English then your origin (Northern or Southern England) may well be in your surname. We all know about Mc and Mac (son of) in the Irish and Scottish clans. Now, according to Leicester University researchers, an English person's geographical roots are revealed by the end of their surname. Surnames ending in 'son' indicate northern English roots while surnames with an 's' at the end suggests a southern ancestry e.g. Williamson and Robertson are historically of Northern origin while Williams, Roberts and Russ are of southern origin - Nearly 60% of northerners in villages like Crosby Ranvensworth in Cumbria had 'son' surnames in the 17th century, and Russ at that time was firmly rooted in Somerset.
