I've reached a Big brick wall. My Great Grand father William Hunter Share joined Wm Cornwalls, light Infantry 1891 under the name John Share, on the record it states he was born 1869 in Dudley,Staffordshire England. William was in fact born in Pittsburg Pa, 1869. I'm trying to find the John Share's who's Idenity he may have taken. The story in the family is the William took his brother John's name. I can find no record of a John Share born to Joseph and Eliza Share in England. Joseph and Eliza were living in England from around 1879 or 1880 until 1893, at which time the came back to America.

I'm so glad to be part of this group! I've been researching my family history off and on sense 2000. I't just been the past 4 Years that I've really worked steady at it.  I've found cousins in Canada, England, Scotland. I've received so much help from so many people.  I'm looking for any Information on Share's and Crannage's from around Dudley area England.
