Hi David,

I received one of your e-mails from Martha. Thought I would write you and let you know that my parents, Harry W. Thorne and Louise E. Thorne have travelled to England and met the family in Weedon, England. Names and pictures are put away, but am willing to dig them out if you are interested.

Just happen to be cruising the Net when I happen upon this site. I will return to see if I might be part of this family tree. It would be nice if I could claim some roots here.

I used to live in Slough never met any Thorns there. All my roots are in Devon. Never met any in USA either but I know there are some there. Wish I had more time for going into family more closely.

You are descended from Ann GADSDEN (GADDESDEN) bp.17/3/1765 d.25/3/1846 bu.29/3/1846 (81) m [28/5/1787] William THORN (THORNTON) [Shopkeeper & so on] 5th child of Richard m Elizabeth Turril (+ variations) and I am descended from 11th child George m Mary Ann Groom (my 3x GG) I probably have by now have my contacts on more Gadsden info then anyone else online + accurate !! Frank Thorn my cousin gave me your website. I have gedcoms from Valerie Anderson (Thorn Mormon descendant) and Karen Braggs much of which is wrong and relies too heavily on IGI which is incomplete.

Hello David,
I've finally got around to having a close look at the Thorn website. Congratulations on producing a really great site; all that hard work has been worth it. This is just the kind of site I would have loved to have stumbled upon a couple of years ago, when I first started looking for my Thorne ancestors. I'm sure that many people will find it very useful.
What a good thing that Richard Thorn married Elizabeth Provis and not Elizabeth Smith or Jones, otherwise we might never have discovered the link between our two branches. When I got that first email that mentioned the name Provis in your family, I just knew there must be a link somewhere. Thank you for all the work you've put in to confirm it.

Your site is very interesting to me. My grandfather was Fred Thorne from Weedon, England and his father was Provis Thorne, wife Ann King Thorne. He came to USA when he was 24 years old and Married a lady from Texas. They lived in Organ, New Mexico and had 5 children. My mother was the 3rd child, Mary Ann Thorne. Diane Hamilton that you have been corresponding with is my niece. She forwards your letters to me. I have enjoyed the update you have sent to her and also the information that Janet Avarne has sent to to us.
