Impressed. I know there are lots of us in the North East of UK and Cornwall UK as well as the Forest of Dean branch - something to do with mining and explosives. There was a Rev. James Sleeman in Bristol UK who had done major research into the family. Is his work online?

Comments:
I don't have any at the moment. I'm not the most extroverted person in the world - that would be my brother Richard Sleeman in Rochester Hills Mi or my cousin Kevin Sleeman in Hawthorne, CA

Comments:
Neat Web site. I'm interested on info about my family history. All the info I have is that my grandfather's father was named Tom (probably Thomas)Sleeman. Tom's 2 brothers were named George and Stanley and that Tom and one of his brothers migrated to USA rom Cromwell. If any one has info please let me know. Thanks.

Looking for more history on my line. My grand father Stanley G. Sleeman kept in contact with family in Cornwall. I think the name I was told was Aunt Winnie or Aunt Winifred. If any help, Grandpa died last year, summer of 1997. If anyone knows my gran fathers family, I would like to try to keep up the contact with them.

Comments:
I have a large amount of information on UK Sleemans from 15th century to present date which I am willing to share with fellow Sleemans.

Just a hi... looking for Henderson Sleman bn c. 1800 who is the father of Isabella Sleman (could be Sleeman) as there documents with both spellings. Isabella born Leith Scotland 01Jan1822 left Greenock 23Jul1839 to South Australia just 17 years old by he self! She married into the Sinclair family (my ancestors too!) So if anyone knows - please !

Well, that's it. I figured there were only a few of us out there. NOW I see the reality of just how much trouble the world is in. Thanks a LOT. My website is under a TalkCity nickname, thus, the un-Sleemanly title. I just stumbled on this site, and I was wondering if you had any information on Albert Sleeman, of Champion, Michigan. He was the father of my grandfather, Robert, who lived in Marquette. Thanks for all of the extensive work you've done, drop me a line at the email address or if you're ev r cruising through the beautiful Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

I have Sleemans in my genealogy research from Cornwall the descendants then moved to Devon. William Sleeman was married to Elizabeth and they had children Mary, Elizabeth, John, Thomas, and Rebecca. All born in the Callington area of Cornwall. This was a great site and hopefully someone can make a connection.

I recently became a Sleeman by marriage. My husband, Martin mentioned having found this site several months ago (yes he did sign the guest book :-) and I thought I'd check it out. He's the only Sleeman I'd ever heard of so its neat to see there are so m ny more out there. Wish my side of the family had something similar! Thanks!

My grandfather Richard Sleeman was born in 1847 and died in 1927. He spent most of his life in Missoula, Montana and may even have been born there. He had five boys (Arthur, Elmer, Ernest, Richard and Erwin) and one girl (Florence). Richard, Elmer and lorence all died childless while Erwin had one son (Elmer) who in turn had two sons (George and Dick). Arthur had children but I do not know their names or where they live. My father, Ernest was born in 1886 and died in 1972. He had three children my sisters June born 1936, Florence born 1943, and myself born 1940. I would much appreciate any information that you might have that might connect my grandfather Richard with his roots back in Cornwall and others of his family.

Comments:
Very interesting! My father emigrated from St Cleer, Cornwall, England in 1949. I know he had two uncles who emigrated to California, USA to work on the railroad. I would very much like to get in contact with any of their descendants.

Ancestors from Redruth in Cornwall UK, generally appear to be either John or Thomas.

My dad is Richard Sleeman and is from Rochester, New York. He is the son of Doug and Mary (Turpin) who were born in Cobourg, Ontario. However, their parents were born in England (I'm not sure which town). I think it is somewhere near Liverpool? My dad is the youngest of the 10 children. Many of his siblings are still in Rochester but others are in Ohio, Utah, Florida and Virginia. As I'm sure you can imagine with 10 kids, there are a number of cousins (somewhere in the area of 40+ and many whom I hav never met). I am the last born of all the grandchildren (I'm 28). This page might be a good way to hear from some of them. I have been living in New York City for the past nine years and have yet to run across a family member but you never know??? Gr at job on putting the page together!!

My mother was a Sleeman, and our ancestors hail from Boyton, near Launceston, in Cornwall, and from parts of Devon and Cornwall along the Tamar River. Three male ancestors emigrated to NZ in the 1870s-80s and settled in the South Island. A sister ended up near Adelaide, in South Australia, while several other siblings stayed on in Cornwall. I have made contact with all those branches of the family and have documented various family tree details, which I am happy to provide to fellow genealogists.

Thank you for getting the Sleeman Home Page up and running. It was something I was going to do when I got around to it!!! Now, thanks to you, I don't have to. I live in Cornwall which is from where most of your folks would have originated. The earliest references which I have found are concentrated in a fairly small area either side of the River Tamar which forms the border between Cornwall and Devon. The earliest reference to the name which I have found to date is to a Thomas Scleman who was living at Stoke Climsland in 1522. I am happy to help with local research but, as I am self-employed, I can't always promise instant results. I look forward to hearing from you and wish everyone A HAPPY 1998!

very exciting! always thought it was a typical dutch name (slee is a dutch word for sledge), but since I was in Cornwall (England) years ago and saw the name sleeman on about 10 pages in the local telephone-book, and after reading some of these comments I am convinced it is a cornish name.

Hi: I am a Michigan Sleeman, I think you might notice that my e-mail address and name don't match? The first part of the address is Caller that is because I am a professional traveling Square Dance Caller. One who teaches and calls Square dancing. My nephew Arthur L. Sleeman in Cincinnati, OH has a very good genealogy data file. Do any of the other Sleemans want to here from or establish communicate thru e-mail or url, if so I would love to chat. I am going to go over the e-mail address's you sent and I will be in touch. Jerry & Joyce Sleeman Kalamazoo, Mi 49004 616/385-2385 e-mail: CallerJGS@aol.com

You have set up a wonderful site. I received your e-mail on Tuesday 12/23/97, so, I was able to share it with my family for Christmas. I did not actually visit the site until I returned to work (I didn't even load the graphical browser at home, I get free access at work.)You may want to visit the "Movie Man Home Page" This page belongs to my brother http://pw2.netcom.com/~gsleeman/Top.html See I didn't make you read nearly as much for this visit, as your letter requeired. I hope to be in touch with you again soon Linda

There is another movie in which William Henry Sleeman is referenced -- Gunga Din (1939),with Cary Grant, Victor McLaughlin, and Douglas Fairbanks, Jr. It's in a scene where Cary Grant's commanding officer (played by actor Montagu Love) talks about "thugg e" -- the ritual stranglers who try to overtake them later in the film -- and how then-"Colonel Sleeman crushed them fifty years ago." (The film's setting was in the 1880s or 1890s, and William Sleeman was busy with the Thugs in the 1830s, so it's accura e). I love this website! Please contact me so we can share more!

Fantastic to see a noticeboard for Sleeman's. They sure travelled far and wide. SLEEMAN is a Cornish and or Devon surname and can have two meanings 1. Clever Person. 2. One who lives at a Slee. (Slee means grassy slope) Most of the Sleeman's in the North Island of New Zealand are related as they are quite new immigrants (this century) and there are quite a few in the South Island as yet I have made no connection with my husband's family.

It's good to see that you all are around on the Internet. Sorry I can't converse with you via e-mail. It is really interesting how everyone can communicate with each other (even if it is not audible). MF

I am primarily researching the Sleemans who came to Western Maryland from Cornwall, England in 1858. I also collect information on other Sleeman family trees in case a future connection is made.
