FOLLETT FREESITE

I sometimes am sent information on other branches of the Follett or related families. Not all of these family histories go back far enough to find a tie-in to my own family tree as represented in my WorldConnect gedcom and my "Family Cards" on this site. However, the information I have received may be helpful to some of you so I will post information that might help you here.

Please if you have information that ties into any of these postings, let me know by email and I will update this information over time.

Send your information to Follett Freesite: EMAIL.

Father Juvenaly of St. Tikhon's Monastery in Penn. forwarded this information. His brother Frank Repass had organized a considerable amount of family information, but unfortunately Frank had passed on due to heart failure in 2000. Father Juvenaly, born John Follett Repass, was kind enough to forward what information he had on this branch of the family. This branch has ties to New Brunswick, Canada, New Orleans, LA and the East Coast. I performed additional research to fill in some blanks. I am convinced a link to my main family tree gedcom will eventually be made. Please write me if you have additional info.

BRENDA COX GEDCOM provides info on Folletts of Devon, London and Newfoundland. Please let Brenda Cox and myself know if you have family data that ties in to anyone in her gedcom.

CONNIE HOY on the Ancient name of FOLIOT. This is fascinating historical information prepared by Robert Follett and originally shared online by Connie Hoy. Robert had followed the name from Foliot to a spelling of Folliet in 1708. If there is anyone out there able to provide further information on this name in subsequent years please email me.

UPDATE: 5/1/11 email from Connie Hoy:

Dear Bonnie,
  I am the said Connie Hoy that you have referenced in relation to the Foliot history. All though I would love to take credit for the research alas I cannot. A relative still living in Taunton, Devon, England,
  A Mr Robert Follett was the person kind enough to give me the information to share. Unfortunately he is not on internet or email so he gave this in the hope that someone could find the missing 100 year link to the Foliot /Follett name.
