Pedrana / Peteranna Family History

Discussion:
I am slowly gathering information on the above family and would like to know if anyone has done a family tree. The founder of this family Luis Pedrana was my GGG grandfather.

Many thanks

Terri

Hi Maureen,

Just seen your posting, I have not been on the site for sometime. Any info that you have will be more than welcome. I can be contacted o this email address: terrinicholl@yahoo.co.uk

Regards - Terri

i am a peteranna - i can give you any information you might need as well....

As you can see from my previous posting that I am doing research on the above families. Would love to hear from anyone with connections to the above.

I was also wondering if anyone has any old photos that they would be willing to scan for me. As it would be nice to see some and get some idea off what they looked like. Also any old stories that have been passed down through the generations would also be welcomed and basically any info that you are willing to part with.

I can be contacted on this email address: terrinicholl@hotmail.com

Many thanks

Terri (nee Hannah)

Hi Terri, I'm sorry, but not part of your family, I just had the facility to look a couple of things up for you. i.e. 1881 census discs. The 1841 census is on line at Rely4u, and I searched on Scotlandspeople for the 1851, but didn't access results (no credits) left.
Good Luck-It seems you've met a family member on the board anyway, so it pays to post :)

Hi Maria,

Thanks for this email. There 3 decendands of mine on your information. Are you part of this family, if you are which part of the family.

Look forward to hearing from you.

Best wishes - Terri
