Welcome to the Family Tree section of our website, if you have come here directly from one of the pdf files.
The section is constantly being updated and expanded.  In the meantime there are pdf outlines for eight of our north Cornwall families,  Callaway, Couch, Frod / Frad,   Werry / Little, Billing alias Trelawder, Constable to Billing, Wadge / Trevithick and most recently Mitchell ..... full details via the Cornwall link

... while Cumberland presently has two  outlines, which represent our tentative family trees for Lancelot Hodgson and Eleanor Ferguson, who married at Kirklinton in 1876.

It is by no means guaranteed accurate, and at times we have had to make leaps of faith which further visits to Carlisle archives may confirm or contradict. Not least is the problem of which of several James Calverts married Eleanor Hope at Kirklinton in 1809, but our latest thinking is included, as at July 2009.

Notice that Thomas Ferguson and Mary Dixon who married in 1808 both appear to have had the same ggrandfather, William Philip.
And notice too the six sets of twins that appear on the two outlines.

Above all, we would love to know what prompted Lancelot WALKER to change his name to Lancelet HODGSON. He was christened Walker in 1855 and was still Walker in 1871, but when he married in 1876 he was Lancelot Hodgson, with his mother given as Jane Walker and his father a farm servant John Walker whom we know nothing of.
Any replies/queries to patriciamilan@btinternet.com please.

New at Sep. 2009 is a map of the extended MILAN family from 1787. Any comments about this would be very welcome please at kerrymilan@btinternet.com.

New at Nov. 2009 - an article about the early BROCK families of the Isle of Axholme - starting with William who married Cecillia MEGGOTT in 1547.  But why does IGI batch no. C018497 for Belton have over 1500 entries between 1542 and 1663, all female?

New at January 2010 - an outline for a branch of the HARROP family who have lived in the area around Barnburgh (Barnborough) for generation after generation, and who became part of the Milan family tree in 1852 when Elizabeth HARROP's daughter Ann HARRISON married William Alexander MILAN.

The TYRWHITT story shows an unbroken line back to the time of Henry VIII.  Quite fascinating.

New at June 2011 - the CONSTABLE family in Cornwall similarly goes right back to Henry VIII, we have finished working on the BILLING alias TRELAWDER family, at least for now, and our most recent work concerns the MITCHELLS of Endellion.

July 2011: John MILNE / MILAN was baptised in 1787 at Edzell in Angus, or Forfarshire, Scotland.  This article seeks to describe the background of the family and local community in what was a century of some turmoil for the country. The MILNE page is well worth the read!
