Want a GINGELL domain name or email address?

I first registered the domain gingell.com way back in October 1997. The Gingell website had been previously running under a GeoCities account since December 2006.

At the time I didn't see any need to register the other gingell domains. However a few years ago gingell.org and gingell.org.uk came available and I thought I'd better save them before they were registered to some unscrupulous organisation. I don't really use them other than to forward onto the gingell.com domain, so if you fancy one let me know and I'll see what we can do.

Also, if you're interested in a gingell.com email address - you can have yourname@gingell.com - I can set this up for FREE so long as the name you want is still available.

Drop me a line if you want further details.

Wilhelmine (Mena) Gangell nee Kannenberg

I received this message earlier this year from Susan Cook in Australia, but somehow misplaced it til now, so I've decided to add it to my blog. I'll let Susan take up the story...

A small band of descendants of Wilhelmine Gangell (nee Kannenberg) gathered approx 350 kilometres north of Adelaide (capital of South Australia) on a cold, windy day on 10 July 2008 to unveil a bronze plaque on her previously unmarked grave to honour her pioneering spirit. Her husband was John Gangell.

My part of this, was to prepare a well sourced and researched document with I have attached. It may be of interest to others. Involvment in this project has included Greg Catchpole, Alison Lawrence, Betty Amber and myself Susan Cook all who are contributers to your website.

I will also attach a couple of photos.

The First is the unveiling by 2 g g g g grandchildren, Tayla and Mitchell


The second, are 5 GG grandchildren, L to R: Neville, Betty, Terry, Susan and Rod


Thank you Craig

I hope that this information will be of value to other researchers.

Kind Regards, Susan
