I am David J Grimshaw and I live in New Zealand.

I have been a member of the New Zealand Society of Genealogist since 1984 and got my first computer in 1985 which was a "Commodore 64", my first Genealogy program was "Family Roots" put out by "Quinsept" since then I have moved on to an "IBM" compatible "PC" and now use a range of software as most family researchers have a habbit of doing.

The reason why I am researching the GRIMASON surname is that my Family is actually a GRIMASON family.

My Great Grand Father ( Robert Henry Grimason ) adopted the GRIMSHAW surname and so did a number of other family members some of whom have remained in Ireland.

I have been able to prove this beyond a shadow of doubt.

I have gained a reputation of being able find out things about the family that even that branch of the family in question do not know about.

Some even refer to me as "Sherlock Holmes".

In a number of cases I have been able to put family members back in contact with each other.

I have even published a story about my quest concerning my Great Grand Father.

To find out more about The Berry line of the Grimason family which I belong to you will need to contact me.
