Overview |
|
|
|
When
my husband, Joseph
Augustine Sheehan and I were contemplating
how we would fill our “empty nest”
years, Joe suggested we track down my 1771
Choyce will. My father had asked me to do
that one day, and Joe said, ”the day
has come.”

Little did
we know then that our search, research,
correspondence and visits for family
history would last 23 years and expand
across five continents.
There are over 350 family photographs
and documents, most of which have
come from the families they portray.
You will find birth, marriage and
death records; extracts from wills
and probate records; suggestions for
further research; and cousins of whom
you knew nothing.
You will find Choice and Choyce families
from around the world ! |

Whoever
said “we are a small family” was
wrong. Incidentally, our research has determined
that the surnames Choice and Choyce are the
same, merely spelled differently. This book
is geared towards the person who has no knowledge
of family genealogy but it is written with
the intention of helping to develop that interest.
There is also a bibliography for those who
whish to go into further research.
Because of the constraints of this web site, a limited
number of selected pages, taken from The Choice/Choyce
Compendium, will be presented here. However, the
web pages will be changed frequently to offer you
a different selection of pages. We’ll try to
include documents, photographs and family charts.
You may contact me at the

suggestions.
