Grimshaw, C.C. – Tulsa, OK – (EAG-42)

C. C. Grimshaw

4372 E. 58th St.

Tulsa, Okla. 74135

Mr. Grimshaw:

Thank you for the Grimshaw lineage you sent me. I don’t believe any of the listed are related. The following is what I know of my immediate family background but have no records of the past lineage, for Grimshaw. I only have the lineage of my mother’s side, who was a Webster, Converse (Noah and Daniel were her second cousins and the lineage goes way back to William the Conqueror on the Converse side. John Webster is as far back as the family had on Webster – he was born in England and came to this country in 1635 and founded Ipswich, Mass.

Frank B. Grimshaw (B. for Barstowe) was born to Jean and Joseph Grimshaw Aug. 10, 1882 in Wilmslow, Cheshire, England. They lived on the estate called "Hawthorne Villa". The Villa, when my grandparents died was sold to England for a hospital during World War II. My dad did tell me that Arundel was part of the lineage. My sister was named Betty Arundel Grimshaw. This is all we know right now and when I can find time, I may delve deeper into it. I do know that the Mormon Church in Utah has the most extensive lineage background for every name but what the charges are for the information, I have no idea. Thank you again for writing.
