At FrancomFamily.com we are dedicated to researching the ancestry and descendants of William Francom and Amy Harding, early converts to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and emigrants from South Africa in the 1860s. Today thousands of Francoms live in North America and most descend from the children of those pioneer ancestors: William, George, Joseph, John, Samuel, Mary Ann, and James.

Our intent is to encourage collaboration by facilitating access to vital information, photographs, histories, documents, etc. At this time there are many unanswered questions, but in the future these questions will be listed in the “Notes” section for each individual. We would invite and encourage you to select one or two families to research. The new forum is a good place for making introductions and asking questions.

Currently, the database hosts more than 3,500 individuals; over 1,000 are living. If you are a descendent of William and Amy Francom, please take the opportunity to register so you can meet those living individuals and contribute research of your own. The Relationship Calculator can help determine your relation to a distant cousin. Any additional comments or questions can be forwarded to me. I look forward to meeting you!
