Traced family ancestry to Oxford villages of Islip, Bletchington and Edgecott - earliest William Eustace died Edgecott 1736. Would like to find the link into the Eustace Family Tree of the Chiltern Hundreds which provides the link back to Count Eustace of Boulogne who accompanies William the Conqueror in 1066.

My father, Dominic Eustace, comes from Passage East in Waterford, Ireland. His father was the local policeman there. My dad was born in 1936.
Searching Eustice Family from Cornwall area. My lines settled in Grant County, Wisconsin.
I've been forever trying to find out about my family. My grandfather Lester Eustace was born in Durango, Colorado around 1890 something. My Dad was Harry Eustace and had a sister named Lorainne in TX. Can you help?
My mother's maiden name was Marinell Eustace. She was born in Texas in
1921. I have traced her family back to John Eustace, born in England in 1650. I would appreciate receiving the Eustace newsletter and will
share any information that I have with anyone who is interested.
I'm looking for Cornish Eustace family members and would be delighted to share with other researchers.
I have been trying to research my great-grandmother's line. Ann Eustace was my maternal great -grandmother and on her marriage certificate (1864) her parents were shown as Robert Eustace and Bridget Kelly. Unfortunately, the birth was not registered so I have not been able to obtain a certificate. I have been unable to find any reference to Robert in England either on census returns or St. Catherine deaths. On the 1881 census Bridget and Ann are living in Berwick-upon-Tweed but by 1849 Bridget had married again. Also in Berwick from about 1842 onwards was another Ann Eustace who was married to Michael Noon and had arrived in England from Ireland with 3 children. There is the possibility that Robert never came to England and if the older Ann is his sister she might be the only clue I have as to his place of origin in Ireland. By the way these Eustaces were Roman Catholics. Can anyone help me progress my research?
I have traced my ancestors back through to 1787 when William Eustis was born in Cornwall, and follow the trail to his marriage to Mary Thomas in 1811 and to his son ,also William who married Jane Trengrove. They also had sons , one of whom Joseph was my Great grand father. He married Anna Marie and lived in Feock in Cornwall. Sometime the name changed to Eustace from the original spelling. Three of Joseph's brothers moved to Australia and I piced up from the old Families Association newsletters that part of the family tree. My descendents from Joseph are, my grand father Frederick Charles who lived in Falmouth and married Maud Offord, and my father Cecil Frederick who married Beatrice Christina Jewel (known as Quennie). I have a copy of my tree on excel or if it would be of use to anyone searching
through the Cornish branch of the name. If anyone has any further information on any part of my own tree I would be pleased to hear.
I am 32 years old an live in Wilmington, Delaware, USA. I was born in Boston, Massachusetts where all of my family still lives. My dad, David C. Eustis is a funeral director on Cape Cod and my brother William
G. Eustis works at Boston University. My father's great grandfather was Governor of Massachusetts, and another grandfather was Secretary of War in the early 1800's. My wife, Eileen, and I have twin children that are just about to have their second birthday. their names are David Curtis Eustis, III and Kelly Leigh Eustis.
I am very interested in my husband's family--EUSTIS-. We believe they are from Truro, Cornwall, but there is no record of a Tobias Eustis (1821-1898). He died in Hammond, St.Lawrence County, New York. He had a brother, George (1810-1856) who, also, died in St. Lawrence Co.,NY. His sister, Mary (1814-1884) married Michael Cowin/Cowan/Cowen and lived in NY, also. I believe their Mother was Philippa Bullin? and his father was named George. Some of the family say he was James. Any help or do you know of some one working on this family??
I am looking for the birth-place of Tobias Eustis (1821-1889). He arrived in the US about 1836 at Oswegatchie, NY. That is in St.Lawrence County. Right on the St.Lawrence River and lived in Hammond, NY. Can anyone help me?? Jean
21/12/98 - I believe that Tobias Eustis came to St.Lawrence County, NY from Lancastshire in 1836. I found his notice of getting Naturalized in St. Law. Co. It said he came from Lancastshire. (Please excuse the spelling.) Do you know of any other Eustis family from there? Jean Eustis
I am a descendant of Henry (b.1822) and Grace (b.1821) Eustace of Crowan Cornwall. Henry was a mine engine driver in Crowan and later in Camborne. One of their daughters, Philippa Nicholls Eustice (b. 1854) married my great-grandfather Thomas Henry Pascoe in 1877. Does any of this connect with your material? Further details if you are interested for your records.
I have also Traced family my Paternal ancestry to Oxford villages of Islip, Bletchington My Great Great Grandfather Henry George (Known as George Henry) EUSTACE born January 28th 1870. Married Catherine Reid DOW had a son named Albert Joseph & two Daughters Pauline & Lillian. Joseph lived in East-Kilbride (outside Glasgow, Scotland) married Joan LAPWORTH and had one son, my Father Albert Edger EUSTACE. Old George (Henry), is said, ran off with a younger woman (unknown) on a trans Atlantic steamer to the USA, never to be heard of again! I have no idea what became of him or if he travelled in his own name, he may of married in the USA (this would make him a bigamist) and spawned another family of Eustaces in the States. I have a copy of his birth certificate but there is no fathers name. We believe his father was Joseph William Eustace born 1850? and his Mother was Anna Maria Louiva, Joseph married Anna around 1869/70. Can you shed any light on this lost branch of my tree?? Is Henry a descendent of your William?
As far as I know my paternal greatgrandmother was one Anastasia Eustace, and she lived and died near Gorey in Co. Wexford.

I regret that Mrs Cobb died on 20 February 1999 |

A cousin in Galway forwarded a copy of Eustace Families Post several months ago. Whilst she has the interest she does not have the time to follow it up and thought I might follow it up. Our paternal Great-Grandmother was Anastasia O'Brien (nee Eustace) who died in Ireland about 1890 but we know nothing about her or her family - we have a vague idea they were from the Waterford area but Anastasia lived in Co Wexford when married and bringing up her family.
On 30 September 1998 Mrs Cobb added: I have come across some information on my Great Grandmother's family. Anastasia was married to Raymond O'Brien (died 10/5/1876 aged 56 years). Anastasia died 1/3/1891. They lived in Ballymoney, Gorey Co. Wexford and are buried in Kilcaven Cemetery, Tara Hill, Gorey. Anastasia had a twin brother John. He lived in Co. Waterford in a place called ?Faithlegg where he worked for a family named Power. He married Mary Cosgrove (1838 1920). They had three children, Kathleen, Mary and John. Anastasia and John had two brothers, Owen and William.
I have the family tree going back to 1109 in respect of Ireland and to 1066 via France, but this is not complete and then back to the Crusades, which is rough to say the least. If I can be of any assistance please ask, at any rate, please keep in contact.
Of course Eustace is a significantly important name to me! I was quite pleased to come across such a interesting site. I know very little about my ancesters. My sister and I are the last of the line of Garrett Joseph Eustace, who was our greatgrandfather. He was born in County Cork, Ireland in 1842. He migrated to West Virginia sometime between 1842 and 1868, as I know my grandfather was born in Ritchie County, West Virginia in 1868. My grandfather was named after his father as was my father and my brother. My greatgrandfather married Emma O'Donnell who also was born in County Cork. I don't know how, where or when they met each other.
I am trying to locate the E F J Eustace who wrote an article that appeared in the 1986 issue of Maritime Wales. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I obtained your EMail address from Graham Eustace when I rang him about the Eustace Family Tree. I am Kevin Belsey, son of Mavis June Belsey (nee Eustace). I have been collating information on both George's and Henry's side. I have been collecting my information form the 1881 census, which does not seem to tie up. I am not convinced that George (b.1867) and Henry (b. Unknown) are brothers, as I cannot find any record on Henry. By looking at the census, I have discovered two George's ( 1 in Nuneaton, 1 in Birmingham ), both aged 13 in 1881. One was the son of the vicar of Bulkington, the other a son of a Gin Finisher. My mother says that her father, George Jnr was very religious, so the Bulkington connection may tie in. I have written to the current vicar of Bulkington Church (near Coventry). The only thing I am cetain of is George married Liar Owen in 1890, I need the Marriage Certificate to make any headway. Can you help and would you like to maintain contact with me on this most interesting investigation.
My aim is to trace the Eustace family back to the 18th century.

I have and am trying to help a lady who is researching Jesse Eustace (born abt 1802) who married Eliza Dimnock. Some of Eliza's children to another person named Joseph Groves were born in Oxford. Do you know of this fellow. I have found their 4 children who all came to Australia, on the IGI but they only say the year and not the place. They are Hannah (1828), Jesse (1832), Adelaide (1834) and Eli (1836). As you can see they are all earlier than the St Catherine Index. Eliza, the 4 children, Joseph Groves and their 2 children all came to Sydney, Australia on 19 Jul 1848 on the Royal Saxon. One of Eliza's children to Joseph Groves was born in Stokenchurch, Oxford. I don't know if that helps, but you might know where the area is. Family Tree
I'm trying to find any information on any Eustace's living in or around Philadelphia between 1850 and 1890.
I wanted to introduce myself. My maiden name is Eustace. It's a rare name and I have never met anyone who spells it the same way as my family did.
David you can call me Betsy. I want to thank you for the information. I am looking to research my family history from the United States working my way back to overseas. I currently live in Dallas, Texas and was raised in Lafayette, Louisiana. Our family was to only family that spelled our name the way we spelled it, which was EUSTACE. It was a very odd name for the area. However, my father and mother are both from the Tennessee area. My fathers grandfather was named William Ivey Eustace and my paternal grandmother was Jewel Krueger Eustace.
I have only just started looking at the Eustace surname for my in laws with that surname. Very little is known by the family. John Eustace and Catherine Unknown had a son Francis who was born in Plymouth in approx.1880. Francis came to Australia and married twice that we know of. First Rose .... in 1917 and then Alma Lee in 1920, and that is where we come in. Francis died in 1927. I would be very interested in making contact with you on their behalf.

I have only just starting on this branch of the family and therefore I have very little information for the Oxfordshire connection but you never know. I saw your interest in the EUSTACE name on the Oxfordshire surname list. I have recently traced an interest of mine George HAWKS who was born in Woodstock, Oxfordshire in 1856. I have an old family letter which shows he had a married sister Martha EUSTACE born 1843 who had a son William born in 1868 (no further details).

Iam replying to a letter and set of Trees that you sent to me on 26th November 1996 in which you stated that you could find no connection between my Eustace's and yours. So far I have not discovered any as yet unfortunately. My oldest is still Harrington Eustace of Henton (died 1776) married Mary Barnett in Chinnor 1747 their grandson William bpt 6 May 1792,married Jane Hubbard of Haddenham in 1811. Family Tree
I am trying to find the origin of the name Tacey. It has been suggested that it is a corruption of the name Eustace. Does anyone have information. Thank you.
My family is from Virginia. I am trying to make sure of the connections--I need to see if the Wm. Eustace who married Margret in 1806, is of my line.The other family names are Flournoy and Gaujot.
I am looking for information about descendents of James Isaac Eustace, brother of John Eustace who married Sarah Frances. I know James Isaac married Sarah Mason Kendall and they lived around Stafford, Virginia. Any information would be appreciated.
My great grandfather William Eustace (born October 1863 in Ireland) came from Dublin, Ireland at the age of 11 with his sister Ellen (in approx 1880 - the ages/dates are not consistent due different sources). They stayed with friends in New York City - Ellen became a nurse in Bayshore, L.I. and William moved to Hartford, CT where he started and ran the Sigourney Market. I'm very interested in learning all I can about the family and tracing the it back to Ireland. Does anyone know who William and Ellen's parents were or why they came to America alone as children? Thanks, Byron.
I have the last name eustace and are wondering if we have any relatives in England. I know that my great grandfathers name was John Reginald Eustace whose father was John Marcus Eustace who was a doctor in England and associated in some way with the Royal Family. I hope that this information helps you out , and i would be thankful if you could email me with any information you may have on my ancestors or relatives in England. Thankfully yours, Derek Eustace
David, Thank you so much for answering my e-mail. Sometimes I write notes and never hear from the other end of the other-space. I appreciate your answer. My g-g-grandfather was John Samuel Eustice, born January 24, 1836 in Crowan, Cornwall England. His parents were Richard Eustace and Johanna Stevens. In the IGI index under "J" I found a christening of John Eustace, Father Richard Eustace and mother Joanna...Christening Jan 31, 1836. I know it's a far shot, but I just have a feeling that it's him. He moved to the United States, but I don't know if he came with his parents or by himself. I'm just trying to put it all together. The information on his family was from a copy of his death certificate. I'm going to search the internet tonight, and look into the CLDS. Thank you for the help. Sandy
I have only a single reference to the surname:
Mary EUSTACE of Castle Martin, county Wexford, dau. of Francis EUSTACE, m. Sir Morgan KAVANAUGH, b. say 1640-1650, fought in the Irish Wars 1676-1691 and then exiled to France.

Curious as to the roots of the name. Things i would like to confirm , e.g. That the name is originally Greek (Eustolios). French connection , is this Huguenot? Two Generals under the Jacobite King James took part in the seige of Derry. Sir Ronald Eustace was the Lord Deputy of Dublin during the 17C , i think. The Eustace Family owned a large area of Co Kildare , Baltinglass , with Ballymore Eustace remaining to this day as a testament to their standing in Irish Society. The Family always supported the native Irish and suffered for it , losing lands and station from the Jacobite wars . I would love to hear more about the FAMILY AND ITS ORIGINS.Please e-mail if interested. Kind Regards - John
I live in Burntwood in Staffordshire, and would love to hear from anyone in my area, or indeed, anyone who knows anyone in my area.
In researching my husband's family, I have an Elizabeth Eustace who m a John Gibson b 1801 in the Orange Co., VA area.
One of their children, Elizabeth, b 1801, m. John Terrill (b. Madison Co.), my husband's 2XGGrandfather. Might you have that information in your database?
Interested in any ancestors especially co fermanagh and co leitrim ireland.
I am looking for information on the Eustace family in County Kildare Ireland at the end of the 18th century and any ties with the names Huddleston or Robeson.
Dear Angela, I noticed that you are researching the name Euston. My g.grand father enlisted in the British army using the name William Wilson, he later stated that his middle name was Euston, and all his children have Euston as their middle names. He said he was born in April 1863 in St.Annes, Jersey, Channel Islands to Peter or Henry Wilson. There is no St.Annes in Jersey, and there is no record of a birth of a William anywhere in the area at that time. We have always felt that his use of Euston has been significant, but can not trace it. I wonder if any of your information could be relevant?

Have just found a Buxton/Eustace marriage in Liverpool via the 1881 census. You might know something about it. Richard Eustace, born Ireland, was 34, tailor and draper. Can't remember the exact address at the moment, but it was the West Derby Road area. He married Emma Buxton, who was 23 in 1881 - so probable marriage date about 1879. The Buxtons were definitely Protestants, and I think a likely church would be Kensington Parish Church. However, I also have Catholic marriages at that time as well - so I rather think religion was variable. Emma Buxton was the sister of my gt grandmother Elizabeth Buxton. Elizabeth married a shipping clerk, Tom Christian (1854-1934) at Kensington Parish Church in 1883 and Emma Eustace was a witness. Elizabeth's parents (William and Elizabeth Buxton) were living in Phythian St at the time. Phythian St is round the corner from Boaler St (off the West Derby Road) where my grandfather John Christian was born in 1886. Any knowledge of this Richard Eustace born in Ireland about 1846/47? Best wishes John Cullwick.

I'm researching the Eastes/Estes surname and while that doesn't at first
glance look to have much relevance to your Eustace research, it appears
that the earliest spellings of Eastes/etc was Ewstace or Eustace, so
there may indeed be a connection. "My" Eastes/Ewstas' go back to c.1495
in county Kent, England. Any possible connection with yours?

One of my relations - Eliza Fanny Ogilvy - married Frederick Eustace in
Melbourne in 1902. They had one child Sunday (female) born 1903. I
don't have any further information on them at all. I would be very
excited if you know the whereabouts of the descendants of Sunday Eustace
as this branch of the Ogilvys (her father was a brother of my great
grand-father) seemed to have disappeared into thin air, although there
is a rumour that they went to South Africa. Do you have any leads on
this family?

I am trying to find information concerning
the name "Euston". My husband, Charles Whitfield Euston, was born here in the
United States in 1944. His father, Charles Willys Euston, was born in the United
States in 1914. His grandfather, Charles William Euston, was born in England
sometime in the 1880s. I have no other information. I don't know of any brothers or sisters on the Euston side. It was said most of the family moved to the U.S., Rhodesia, or Australia.
I wondered if there was any relation to Euston Hall in Norfolk, England but can find no mention of the Euston surname in the area. The family name of Euston Hall is Fitzroy who is the
Earl of Euston & Duke of Grafton. (not that I think there is any connection but the name isn't that common)
I have found that there is a place named Euston in Australia.
Any connections to the surname "Euston"?
What is your connection to the "Euston" name? I can see by the
information at rootsweb that you are trying to make a connection
from Ireland to England. Do you think that the name "Euston" is
originally of Gaelic derivation? I understand that some think
that "Houston" was originally Gaelic.
I would be happy to share whatever information I have on the family
with you. Patricia Euston
