Hello
I was born Snarr. If you can trace your family back to John Snarr+ Ann Bramham or william Snarr + mary Barton then we have a match
Regards Irene

(1782 Marriage, William Snarr, Mary Barton, Howden, Yorkshire (East Riding)

9 Snarr marriages in Hampshire (ignoring the 1813 one in Alverstoke) all but 1 are in Portsmouth or Gosport dating 1931 - 1985

9 Snarr births in Hampshire 1932 - 1981, 7 of those registered Portsmouth or Gosport

My initial thought would be one of the hundreds of Yorkshire Snarrs joined the Navy and settled in Portsmouth area (Portsmouth and Gosport are either side of Portsmouth Harbour).
(Heavens forbid it could actually be Army too) -

Do you have any names that you are particularly trying to link?

MargaretM Report 2 Jul 2017 19:49

It would help to have some names and dates to try and make a connection.

Irene Report 2 Jul 2017 19:08

I am trying to link the Snarr family in Hampshire with the Snarrs from Yorkshire.
Can anyone out there help please?
