| The main family tree follows
seventeen generations from about 1550 to 2004. As the
complete paternal-line main tree is rather large, it
is also shown in four parts which can be looked at or
downloaded separately. Each file is quite big and may
take several minutes to download at standard modem speeds.

is an index with links to the trees in the chart
at the end of this page. |
A
note about registrations and the dates of events
There was no compulsory registration of births,
deaths or marriages until 1538. In 1538 (during
the reign of Henry VIII) Thomas Cromwell ordered
every parish in England and Wales to keep a register
of every baptism, marriage and burial.
Baptisms
could take place some while after birth, so baptism
dates are not necessarily an indication of birth
date.
Civil registration did not begin until 1837,
when the registration changed to births, marriages
and deaths. That is why many of the events in
the trees are baptisms and burials before 1837,
rather than births and deaths. There were no penalties
for failing to register until 1875 and there are
consequently some gaps in civil registrations
between 1837 and 1875. |

A
note about dates
Before 1582 the church determined the calendar
and the church (ecclesiastical) year started on
25th March. So, for example, 31st December 1500
was followed by 1st January 1500,
but the day after 24th March 1500
was 25th March 1501.
From 1582
there was a new style of year that started on
1st January. However, this new style January -
December year was not adopted by the church in
England until 1752. As a result, during the interim
170 years (between 1582 and 1752) the church and
new style years were out of kilter. Dates during
this period are often recorded as (for example)
1601/1602, being the ecclesiastical / newstyle
alternatives.
Although both dates are in our records,
the computer program that was used to draw the
family trees cannot handle this double dating,
so the dates in the family trees as drawn may
vary (by one) from the dates given in other sources. |
All the information in the family
trees is in public records. Nevertheless, we have tried
not to publish information about living people who do
not wish their details to be on the internet. The trees
already exclude people who have asked that their details
are not published. If information
about you or your family is included and you would like
it to be removed, please click here
to tell us and we will make the changes as quickly as
possible. |
We
are very grateful to Jane Tytherleigh, Pat Tytherleigh,
Jo Trafford-Owen, Peter Fisher, Robert Titherley
and Pam Titherley for information about the earlier
generations.
