Welcome to my web site which is mainly devoted to all things relating to the history of the surnames Linter and Lintern. Over the course of time I intend to publish as much information as time allows. As a general rule I will be limiting this to data which is at least seventy years old but I will extend this to more recent material if there is nothing potentially embarrassing to anyone living today. Further, I will not be including any details, other than names, of any living person unless that individual requests that I do so.

I have also started adding some information relating to other (non-Linter) branches of my family tree.

I have intentionally attempted to design my pages such that users with older display equipment should, in most cases be able to view the information without having to scroll to the right.

We are looking to move home in the next few months and to start up a new business so my previous promise to devote more time to family history is already under threat! If nothing much is happening on this site you can always check out the Linter group on Facebook which is administered by my cousin, Simon Linter. I must apologise to anyone who is waiting for an email response from me. I came back from my summer holiday to find hundreds of emails in my Inbox but I am gradually getting there.

If you have any photographs you can supply for the gallery of Linters I would be very grateful to hear from you. Finally, an appeal to anyone with elderly relatives; if you haven’t already done so, you need to get them to identify the people and places in your family photographs before it’s too late. Believe me when I say that there is nothing more frustrating than inheriting unidentified pictures.

Please send any enquiries relating to this site to my email address which is ‘graham@linter.co.uk’
