Hi, I am a Dames from South Africa. My dad had 13 siblings with the surname Dames, and we are 3 children one girl & 2 boys. Both my grandparent (Dames) are deceased - my grandma (Dames) were 95 when she passed away, she had a bad fall, broke her hip and died of complications - as far as I am aware off, she was quite healthy apart from the accident so it seems like there is no majour illnesses in the family line.

Hi Amy,
in my database I have an "Edward Dames", born 09.03.1872 in Joliet, Ill. All my relatives in the USA came from Irlich near Neuwied in Germany and emigrated between 1850-90. They mostly settled in MO, OH and Ill. This is my homepage, where you'll find more information: www.dames.de.ms

Gustave DID serve in the Navy aboard the USS Panther around 1910 as a machinist. He died in 1969. His son Gust was born 4 Mar 1927, and sone John W was born 5 Mar 1929, both in California. Gust still lives in California, Sacramento area, but I don't know about John...

Edward and Bertha arrived with their children in the US on April 22 1891 on the Weiland. Their port of departure was Hamburg, Germany, and their port of arrival was NY.

Re: Dames/Dahms

Chloelizzie — 2007-05-07 05:47:33Z

I saw this old post, and am interested in information that you may have. Edward G Dahms/Dames and Bertha H Felix are my Brother-In-Law's GGrandparents through their son Gustave who married anna (last name?). I'm the one in the family that enjoys putting these puzzle pieces together! I have found SOME information on them back to them immigrating to the US, but nothing before that. I'd also like to be able to fill in information after 1930. I'd love to find out if you have any concrete birth and death dates or any other puzzle pieces I don't have!!!

Thank you so much in advance!

Would like to know of a possible connection between Gus Dames, Dahms, Dams and Bertha Rackman. Have a letter from one of Bertha's sons stating that Bertha was married for a short period of time circa 1915 to him. The area would have been Lorain, Polk Township around Clam Falls, Wisconsin.

Thank you.

Mary Dames parents = Richard Dames& Elizabeth Dearson married 1774 St Botolph Bishopgate London. My interest is in Dearson families. I have only just received from Documents on Line the will of Richard Dames Died 1821. Mary is mentioned.I didn't know of her existence until I saw the will. I already had siblings George bp 1777 , Anne Martha bp 1784 m. William Wells Plaxton ,Sarah Dickenson bp 1785 m. Thomas Wells Plaxton, Lucy Elizabeth bp 1786, Charles Richard bp 1793 m. Elizabeth Walton. There is a site on the net for a" sugar refiners database", this has listings of Dames, Plaxtons, Waltons.

Miss Mary Frances MacFarlane, Gentlewoman, was born in 1877, and died in 1955. She married (1905, England) Francis James Nesbitt Longworth-Dames, Esq., and had a son and two daughters.

Given that they had a grandson with the same name as yours I assume that you are that person and I am contacting you in the hope that we may share information anent this family. I look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely,

Chevalier Terrance Gach MacFarlane

Joseph Dames

djr1215 — 2005-06-14 19:16:06Z

I just came across an album of old (probably late 1800s) photos (both paper and ferrotypes.) Only 2 have any id on them. One is actually a receiving card or something. It has a small photo of a young man, and has "Joseph Dames" printed on it. The other one with a name on it is of a woman and small child. On the back it says Bennie Brown, S. May Brown, Woodburn, Marion Co, Oregon.
Many of the other photos have photographer imprints from Iowa - Keosauqua, Milton, Ottumwa. There are a couple from northern Missouri, and 1 from Illinois.
If you think this Joseph Dames might be your family, please let me know - I'll be glad to share.

Re: J. Longworth Dames

2004-01-05 02:25:48Z

I would think your artist would be John Longworth-Dames, born abt 1800, s.o Thomas Longworth-Dames of Greenhill, Kings Co, Ireland and Jane Burke, b.1772, Galway. About all I know of John was that he was a banker in Devonshire. Accroding to notes made by one of his brothers, in 1821 'my brother John situated at a merchants house in Liverpool'. In a further note, this brother (Francis), mentiones that, in 1836, John was 'Manager, Provincial Bank, South Molton, Devon.

barbara101038 — 2003-04-26 19:46:15Z

Liz I have now found that the Dames changed there name from Dahms which is what it was when they came from Germany to US and then changed it to Dames You can find it inthe censes for the 1900-1930 for Pottstown,Pa. The Father was Edward Dahms who can over about 1890 from Schlorham,Germany

Dames

barbara101038 — 2003-04-26 19:46:15Z

The Dames(Dahms)that is how it was spelled in Germany and was changed after they came to US. The Dahms in my line came from Hammerstien that was my GGandmother and my Grandmother came from Schlorham which is just outside of Berlin,Germany. and as far as I know they move all over some to Calif,some to Canada,some in Penn, and other places that I am now finding out about.Hope this may help you.
