Hello, Has anyone come across Frederick James Harsant in their family tree? All I know at this stage is that he died 2 October 1953 and he was interred in Camberwell Old Cemetery. He was married to Mary Spring and as far as I know they had no children. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks Laura

You may be in luck. I found a Frederick James Harsant, b. Camberwell June 1897 on this family website - www.tolliss.com/ - just enter his name and hit the search button.
If its the same person it gives a fully referenced genealogy back through several generations. Unfortunately there is no data past him or about any marriage, but its not a common name, and you may have to visit the cemetery to check the headstone.

Good luck.

Hi, I have Frederick James Harsant who married Mary Spring in 1923 on my tree.
Although a very distant relation I got this information from the following source

http://seggeryft.users.btopenworld.com/PAB/index.htm

If you type in Frederick James Harsant in Msn (or google) it will show a link to the above tree. There are over 200 Harsants listed, one of which is Frederick.

Hope this helps.

This happens when you go on a surname board - i.e. Trying to find, History, Surname information. It locks you into that surname till you either go on one of the other boards, or click on "remove this filter" in the green area on the left. A new factor on Genes and catches lots of people out, me included. Very annoying!
