The Poultney Family
Updated September
5, 2009
This Poultney family has it's origins in
Southern Africa when the first ancestors arrived in Algoa Bay as emigrants from
England with the 1820 Settlers
and after five generations in South Africa moved to what was then Southern
Rhodesia. Having gone through the trials of the changes from
Rhodesia to Zimbabwe we moved in 1988 and settled in Canada where we have
our home in Spruce Grove, Alberta.

The purpose of this web site is to share with
you our personal history and heritage, particularly for those interested in
family tree research
and Rhodesiana, as well as current news of our lives in our new homeland and
our ongoing interests and pursuits.
We hope you will browse these pages and enjoy what you find
