Hi folks

Just starting looking for "Way" search in Channel Islands and England. Finding to many same names meaning multiple marriages.
I am a "Way" in Canada, and realized that my dad and his sisters have many different memories on all the marriages and remarriages.
Found a brother that my grandfather didn't acknowledge...interesting! And a family of children left by their mother with other family members.
Anyway, I am struggling with where they came from before Channel Island....somewhere in Dorset England, just to many to confirm....Robert Way, and Thomas Way, are they brothers or possible cousins...help please! (Middle 1800's)
