Help[Opinions] Re: Tomima
in reply to a message by Frollein Gladys
Fascinating. I've never seen it before. There have been 9 born in England between 1850 and 1930, all in the North of England. (Sorry, I don't have access to Scottish records) I had a poke around and came up with the page from the lingerie lady pointing me to Orkney, and then umpteen Orcadian genealogies with Tomimas in. No useful info really. The Tomine / Tomina / Tomima via Jemima theory seems plausible to me, but you'd probably need doctoral funding to prove it!
Nice name though, especially with all that family history attached.

It goes to show just how much of a "freak" I really am if I'd actually enjoy getting paid for researching the old and obscure, doesn't it? Name-wise, I mean. Unearthing long lost treasures of the realm of names. Kind of like a lesser Indiana Jones ;)
Yeah, unfortunately with Tomima every source seems to run dry pretty quickly. So thank you so much for trying to help out! :)
