This
website is an extension
of THE QUALTROUGH FAMILY
website and has been developed to place on line the hundreds of Qualtrough
references that have been gathered in the course of the QUALTROUGH Family
History research world wide.
-
The
QUALTROUGH family originates in the Isle of Man, UK. The name originates from McWalter and has been written in a
variety of ways - MacWhaltrough, McWalter, Qualtair, Qualtro, Qualthrough
Waterson, Watterson etc. For
further information on the history of the name visit THE
QUALTROUGH FAMILY website (see below).
-
Its
purpose is to make available to future Qualtrough family historians and other
researchers information which has been gathered along the way as part of any
One-Name Study. It is hoped that
by providing this facility, future researchers will have an easier time in
locating the information they are seeking.
-
These
reference indexes are NOT to be confused with the Qualtrough
Family Tree database which will be placed on a separate web facility
sometime in the future. These
indexes are many lists of Qualtrough references gathered from many and varied
sources. The categories will
include births, baptisms and christenings, marriages, divorces, deaths and
burials. There will also be
obituaries, probates and wills indexes, newspaper references, shipping list
references, census extracts, references from the Internet in many categories,
land and title deed references, and others compiled along the way.
-
The
lists will be arranged in their categories, then by geographical area.
Where possible the information will be referenced
back to its original source so researchers can check for themselves the
original documents and records. Records
obtained off the Internet will be sourced back with a link to the relevant
website so the researcher can check further and extend their search.

Information
on this website is from sources which are in the public domain. No
claim to copyright is expressed or implied. Names, dates and places
are public information and as such are free of any copyright
claim. Lists on this site are comprised in all instances of this
type of information.
-
As
you can no doubt imagine, we have collected a lot of information to be
included on this site. Like all web sites this one is
continually evolving and as a result not all the information will be
available straight away. Please check back frequently as this
site will be updated on a regular basis.
-
References
are always sought. If you locate any in the course of your research,
please send them to the contact email address on this website.
They can then be added to this resource database.
Thank you.
