My Grandfather Harold James Harris

I have been interested in genealogy for about 25 years, but only began serious research 5 years ago. My main family names are:

HARRIS Portsmouth and Wiltshire

RANDALL Surrey and Warwickshire

BOXALL Surrey and Sussex

BLUNDEN Suffolk

NOAKES Moreton, Essex

JAMES Churchill, Oxfordshire

GALE Esher, Surrey

SMITH East Clandon, Surrey

SHEPPARD Bath, Somerset

SARGENT Looe, Cornwall

DUTTON Boston, Lincolnshire

LAST Suffolk

GODBOLD Suffolk

NUNN Suffolk and London

PARR Suffolk and London

POACHER Suffolk

My most enduring brick wall involves Caroline MANDLE, (Mandell/Mantle/Mantell), possibly from Hampshire, or possibly the Channel Islands, c 1800-1840

Then there is the Irish side, of which I know only that my Irish grandparents were called Thomas MCDERMOTT and Mary Ann O'HARA, who lived (and may have been born) in Carrick on Shannon, Leitrim.

Another big area of interest is the SCOTT family, who were Lords of Manor of Camberwell c 1300-1600, and who may, or may not have been related or associated with the Scott dynasty at Brabourne, Kent. The Camberwell family had either died out or fragmented completely by late 1600's, but with one line (I think!) migrating down to Horne in Surrey to become "gentlemen farmers" until the early 1900's.
