I have 3 Cheshire brothers who came from England to Long Island in 1653. One went to Connecticut - 2 stayed in New York at the time. New York Cheshire's were prolific; so I could be related to Cheshire's along the East coast. If you wish to contact me directly it is cowcutter1989 at sign yahoo dot com (this avoids spam somehow or so teenagers tell me).
My Father was a Cheshire on both sides and neither was related to the other.

That is still to be determined. I descend from Cornwells in Prince William Co, VA. There are many connections to the Cheshires and the Cornwells, so we are trying to figure out if we are related. Do you have any Cheshires that came through PWC, VA?

Rhonda-We are looking for any information that we can find on Sarah and William. Any stories or and facts that we could find would be great and any that we have or find, we would love to share. On our trip to Eastland, we are going to visit graveyards and old houses. If you would like us to take a few photos for you, please let us know. My camara skills aren't great but they are free. It is so good to find people we are related to. That has been one of the best parts of this whole experience. We want to save part of the past for our children and grandchildren. Thank you!

I'm betting we are related, too, somewhere down the road. My Chesher/Chesshers started in Virginia, then went to Tennessee, stopped for a time in Missouri, then went on to Texas. Looks like yours stopped in Arkansas instead of Missouri! Wonder who John's parents are...

This gets better and better! How are you doing? My name is Sharon and Sidney Marvin Fowler was my grandfather. My dad, Sidney Marvin, Jr., was his son and was born in 1922, in Eastland. His sister was Margie Lynn"Fowler" Milburn. I will be glad to share information on them. My brother, Wayland Fowler, and his wife are going with me to Eastland and surrounding areas this month to take photos and check around. Both Sidney Marvins have their names on the Eastland County Courthouse as veterans of WWI and WWII. Our parents are buried in the Eastland City Cemetary. If you wouldn't mind sharing with us, we would treasure your stories and the location of the house in Cisco. Also, any background on any family would be appreciated. Our family is gone and we would love to record the past for our children and grandchildren. Thank you so much!!! Wouldn't it be nice to have a family reunion someday? Sharon-snjeske(a)yahoo.com

Hi Rhonda! Wow! Thanks for looking all of this up. I had some of the census records but not all. It looks like I have found a family member. If you ever need help with info from California let me know! Kind regards, Lila

I don't come from this particular line, but I found William and Sarah on the 1900 Census of Washington Co., AR. From that, I looked for William in preceding censuses, and found him a great match in Washington Co., AR in 1850, 1860 and 1870, with his parents John and Julia/Julian.
(I used Ancestry.com to search the censuses.)

Sarah Francis Sikes and William c. Cheshire were the parents to my grandmother Dona Bell Fowler. She is my father's mother. (My father was Sidney M. Fowler, Jr.) I you have any information on their ancestry, I would really appreciate it. This month, I am going to Dublin and to Eastland, where my parents are buried. I have just started doing my geneology. I waited until my parents and grandparents were gone before I realized that I should have asked about their past. I would like to find out about our family and pass it on to my children and grandchildren. Thanks! Sharon"Fowler" Jeske
