Hi there! I've recently began researching my family tree, and to gather some information i logged on to a search engine and typed in my unusual surname 'Cherry'. I was amazed to find that a miss Gladys Cherry had been aboard the titanic with her cousin (the Countess of Rothes)and they'd survived. Gladys was born in London in 1881 and died in Surrey in 1965. She married an army officer, George Octavius Shaw Pringle. My research so far has shown me that I have family & relatives which is widespread across the UK, including Scotland, Carlisle, & Eastbourne as many of my great aunts and uncles were adopted and moved all over the country. If anyone has any info which could help my research into my family history, i'd be grateful for the help and i'd love to hear from anyone who thinks they may be related to me. Thanx! |

Hi, Claire! An official welcome from the only other Cherry on the ET board! I did some limited research one time to see if I was related to passenger Gladys Cherry, but my ancestors were not from England, and nothing short of a very remote connection would be possible at this point... Again, welcome to the ET and I hope you find more genealogy to add to your research! Kind regards, Dan Cherry USA |

Cherry was my grandmother's maiden name. I haven't been able (yet) to trace it and see if there is any connection to Gladys Cherry or not. |
