Hello,

I too have this query as my great grandad x 5 William Bramhall born in Yorkshire in around 1720 died date unknown
in Ringkobing.

I'd love to know the connection.

Bye for now

Paula

Hello Paula
Thanks for contact
I have no further info on the Ringkobing connection except to say that I have eliminated two names Thomas Urey 1832 and spouse Alice Dutton 1831.
Can I suggest that you google for 'Surname Ringkoping'
There are some links to brit names, so there may be
be some sort of info/connect that might help you.

Yours is the first contact since I posted in August 2009, so its nice to see that the message boards can be useful.

I will mail you if I make any sort of progress with the Ringkoping mystery.

Best Regards
Brian Eastwood

This is a different Paula, chiming in on this. I must have missed seeing your message the first time you posted it. Do you think that all of those folks moved to Denmark permanently? I'm not sure how familiar you are with Denmark, but Rinkøbing is the name of both a city and a county. How do you know that they went to Ringkøbing? Or is that a guess? There is no national death index or even a county index. If I were you, I'd join the Denmark Rootsweb list and ask there. Some of the native Danes might know of resources for finding folks from other countries that I don't know about. (I'm the list owner). More info here:

Hello different Paula

Thanks for response
Cant remember right now, how I got to a Ringkobing link
Need to track back om that one.
Probably a solid link at the time, hence the message...
Thanks for suggestions, I will follow that in due course'
[So much to do - so little time ...]

Yeah, I'm finding out how hard it is to go back to old research. If you can figure out more, join the list because some of the people there are extremely knowledgeable.

Hi Paula
I find that nothing moves forever / Zilch progress, then Whoosh, a flood of info.
Just got back from a month in USA so will be a little while before I properly re-connect with Anything

I am trying to find out why my ancestor John West Buckle bn Long Crendon, UK in 1688 died in ringkobing 5/10/1776 - 88 yrs old. How did he get there from UK - of poor lineage,was he there for another reason, decided to stay and married, ending his days there. any information greatly appreciated

Do you know what parish he died in? Perhaps we can trace him.

Cheers,
Paul
