Date Family
- Sithney
I am researching my family line on my father's side. When I originally posted my details on the site some months ago, I believed that I decended from the Date family who were based in Somerset. Through research, I now know that this is incorrect as my decendants were from Cornwall, namely from Constantine, Breage and Sithney. Through the willingness of others to share information, I have amassed a great deal which I am slowly putting onto a family tree. However, I would be delighted to hear from anyone who may be a DATE or have a DATE connection in their family trees to discuss any links that there may be.
