The Richardson and Searle Family History

Welcome to Carolyn’s Family History.

This website is dedicated to preserving and sharing the history of Jim Searle (later Naylor) and his wife, Violet Richardson, their families, including siblings and extended family branches, and the generations that came before them. It accompanies an ongoing family history project that traces the lives, stories, photographs, and records of ancestors in England, and Australia.

Research is continuing, and new discoveries are regularly being made. If you are connected to the Searle, Richardson, or related families, or if you have photographs, documents, stories, or family information you would be willing to share, I would be delighted to hear from you.

Together, we can help preserve these family stories for future generations.
