| Message | Hi, regarding the Staffordshire/ Midlands England Orgill's. My great great grandfather was born around 1873 in Staffordshire, England and was an Orgill. His parents actually migrated from Dublin, Ireland. His mother was Bridgett born 1939 and father John (approx) 1836. I am unsure why they picked staffs, but around the time my great grandad was born there appears to be quite a few Orgills in the area - you know how us cathloics breed like rabits! I dont know enough about History but wouldn't this make those Orgill's great famine emigrants, the name is so rare I guarantee I am related to those Orgills in Staffs/ Derby & Notts. My great granddad then came to America. It is interesting to me. From web research I have found the name to be of Scottish or French origin, which are two completely different cultures! But then my family was originally from Ireland. Although my family are bonefide Irish-American's to the core, i'd say its most like Argyle went to Ireland as part of Ulster settlement and emigration, then some went to England/ America etc during mass Irish emigration. I come to this conclusion because there is no real Irish from of Orgill. There are a few Argel, Cargill & Argyle's but i cant find any there at the moment called Orgill which suggests they came from Scotland originally. The Orgill mystery continues! P.S Im glad the name has such mysterous origins it makes it more interesting |

| Message | My grandmother maiden name was May Orgill born in Johannesburg. She died about 5 years ago. Her 88 year old younger sister Nancy also lives in Johannesburg. They are related to the famous carriage maker Orgill from Grahamstown South Africa. I don't know how the family got to South Africa. |

| Message | Hello Joe I live in Kitchener Ontario Canada .... and am a relative new comer to family genealogy .... So far with the help of a cousin in New Brunswick Canada I have a record of my family on my Mom's side back to 1675 as the earliest confirmed date .... The family name in that chain is Pridham ....For me (or my cousin) to look at your lineage back to Adam is PHENOMENAL and MIND BOGGLING .... I do NOT mean to be critical .... or do NOT mean to cast doubts on your efforts .... but I have a question .... What PROOF do you have ???? .... I doubt that documentation was a priority the first 10 or 20 generations from Adam .... In that case do you go on stories passed down by word of mouth ???? .... The last person that I know that did that was Alex Haley and even he had his distractors .... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE do NOT take this as being critical .... I would HONESTLY like to know what proof you have for even PART way back say to the time of the Roman invasion of England .... I would DEARLY LOVE to be able to use the same processes on my own research and trace my family back before 1675.... I am VERY MUCH looking forward to your reply .... but to be HONEST I will be SURPRISED if I get one ....I hope VERY MUCH I am wrong .... I hope to hear from you soon Regards Hadley Burns Kitchener Ontario Canada bluenoser312_@yahoo.com |

| Message | Hi Joe, I was very curious about the 1st Orgill to join the Church. My dad has no info on this and never shared any stories about this with us. I am so happy to read the story of their conversion and migration to Utah. Thank you for your dedication to family research. I want to spend some time with you soon to learn more and to get involved. Thanks, Dave |
