Biography
Descendant of Mayflower passengers.
Byron is the 22nd Great Grandson of King Edward III.
Byron was born at the Blue Hill, Maine hospital. He then resided in Deer Isle, ME until joining the US Army. He returned to Maine and now resides in Portland.
- Name
Byron is named after his great grand uncle Byron Silence Walton (1887-1971). The birth certificate spelled his middle name as Quimby, however his mother had intended to use the Quinby spelling. The middle name was from his 5th great grandfather Moses Quinby (1759-1824). He later had the middle name legally changed to match his ancestor.

Edit: LOL I have you in my tree! I found you through RootsTech. 😁 Now I see the Shively name. David Myers and Eleanor Shively. Their son Wilbur leads to you, and his older brother William leads to me. I will do more research into Eleanor's line. Thank you for the tip!

I was living on the other end of the country when she passed. My father is Ed gratwicke (living) and his father was Frederick gratwicke. I will be posting my DNA results very soon as they are being processed! Just looking into my family history and was wondering if you had any stories or pics or memories to share? You can email me at [email address removed]
Thanks for having a Big Heart and adopting Orphan Profiles. You will want to read this After adopting orphans FAQ to understand what to do next and it explains the special attention those profiles need.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Thanks for all your good work on the John Quinby line. It’s good to see people accurately addressing QUINBYS as Quinbys rather than misnaming them “QUIMBY.”
I did the certification so I could manage the profile of my direct paternal ancestor Davis-2708 who was born in 1698. I found it to be orphaned and wanted to adopt it. I currently have no research that would cause me to create a Pre-1700 profile.
Congratulations on certifying to work on pre-1700 profiles!
It’s very important to read and understand the Help:Pre-1700 Profiles page. These profiles for deep ancestors are shared by many, and collaborating on them works best if we all follow the guidelines in the certification quiz.
Primary sources should always be added to pre-1700 profiles at the time they are created. If you don't have a source for a pre-1700 profile, it would be best to ask for help in the G2G forum before creating the profile.
