I am also seeking information on this family, Wm & Elizabeth's son Thomas b. 1838 and Amelia Neander had a son Wm Henry b. 1867 he married Selina Amy Williams. Their son Gordon Charles b. 1909 is the connecting link to the person I am seeking this family line for.
Is there any new leads that anyone has found recently?
