The unusual name of Ironside appears to have just two basic lines...
1) The Scottish .... based in Aberdeenshire 2) The Durham/Dorset .... from Houghton le Spring in Co Durham, and Long Bredy in Dorset.

Biography
Have been interested in Family History for over a decade, since being spurred to action by an Internet Posting by Canadian Artist Lorne Wagman who had found an IRONSIDE family tree book in a second hand bookstore, and was generous enough to list some of its contents. My mother was an Ironside, and I have been very fortunate to have found ancestors back to c1450. The "fan out" into other families is, of course, considerable. I hope to be able to share these with you, once I have overcome the hurdles involved in splitting GEDCOMS!............. On the other hand... I am finding it somewhat easier to add individuals manually.... less prone to mistakes too!
Best Regards ....Mike

The England Project Leaders check-in with the members every six months to see how people are getting on. How are you doing? I notice you've dropped out of the Orphan Trail. Is there a particular reason for this? I'd love to have your feedback.
One requirement for membership in the project is that you contribute to a team at least once every six months. Are you willing to rejoin the Trail or would you prefer to leave the project for now and focus on other things? If you do the latter you'd be most welcome to rejoin later on.
Please respond to me via e-mail.
Many thanks,
Susie, England Project Leader :-)
On behalf of the England Project Leaders we're carrying out a check-in to see how all the members are doing and taking the opportunity to thank you for all your hard work over the past six months. We have been so impressed with the way everyone has rallied together and gone the extra mile to make this one of the most dedicated, productive and friendly communities on WikiTree. What are you enjoying most about being in the project? What would you like to see improved or changed? Would you like to continue in the project moving forwards?
We're looking forward to hearing back from you,
Amy, Susie, Gillian and Wendy
I only started on it to get rid of a data base error but ended up doing a lot of research and got rather carried away. If there is anything that you don't like or would wish me to change, please tell me
It is quite a thin book, of non-standard dimensions... somewhere between A4 & A5... with a dark blue cover, displaying the family "crest" .....A Cross with Crosslets in Gold beneath Inscription "In Hoc Signo Vinces".
I see references to the books written by General Sir Edmund Ironside and his many accomplishments, but I haven't found the title of the Ironside Genealogy.
