Does anyone know of anyone in the UK with the surname Reinwald.
They were a large family from Liverpool I have been searching for years with little success.
Thank you

Thanks everyone for this. Not been on the site for a while.
I am looking for any Reinwald, my father William was born 1918 in Liverpool, his father was born in Holland. I've seen some of these results before but cant connect them to my branch of the family.
Will start to investigate more when I have time.
Thanks again.

Still not clear what you're looking for, Maureen.

You say, "I am looking for any Reinwald" - does that mean a living Reinwald?

hi all,
Has anyone info on Reinwald family Liverpool or origins of the name.
My grandfather William Charles Reinwald was born in Deventer Holland 1882, move to Liverpool 1903?
His mother was Helena Klerq from Holland.

In reply to pm just received, no I'm not related Maureen...

You would need Marriage Cert. to find more on his Father...

Is this him??

He's an AB on the ship.
Birthplace of Sweden written in by someone else's hand, so maybe a mistake?

Have you found your grandfather in the 1911 census? I don't see him there.

The only Reinwalds in censuses for Liverpool / West Derby 1891-1911 are George and family, already posted above.
