Introduction . . . The Ancestral Trees for selected related Families are indexed below.   Although, there are few if any, living family tree members included in these trees, we still restrict access and have them password protected.   Known Family Members and selected Outside Researchers are allowed to have access.   In return, Researchers are requested to pass along new information and documentation, so we can document as complete a Family Tree as possible, suitable for future publication.   | Return to Top |     Applin . . . Rueben Applin:   He was born in 4 Jul 1798.   He married Eunice Roberts, daughter of Abraham Roberts.   This began a descendency line through Applin, and Thompson (which joined our Townsend line) to our Roberts Family.   Our focus on this family is to explore the possible connection of Eunice Roberts ancestry to our established Roberts Family tree.   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Applin   | Return to Top |     Carver . . . Robert Carver of Marshfield:   He was born in 1594, and was the progenitor of this American Carver Family.   He was the nephew of Capt. John Carver, Mayflower passenger and the first Governor of Plymouth.   This was a great ship building and sea faring Family.   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Carver   | Return to Top |     Cutler . . . William Cutler:   William Cutler, born in Suffolk Co., England in 1500, begins this Family Tree.   Five generations later, John Cutler, born in 1600 in Sprouston, Norfolk Co., England, would become the progenitor of this American Cutler Family.   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Cutler   | Return to Top |     Kerby . . . Thomas Kerby III:   He was born about 1609 in Antingham, Norfolk Co. or Kent Co., England.   Although we have the line back to 1530, we begin the Ancestral Kerby line with him, because he is the progenitor of the American Kerby Fammily.   The Kerby Family is of interest, because they are ancestors of my wife, and to some of my Roberts cousins.   We include eight generations here, and include the celebrated David R. Kerby, who had three wives and twenty-six children, and who is the common ancestor to some Stevens and Roberts Family branches.   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Kerby   | Return to Top |     Peterson . . . George Allen Peterson:   He was born 16 Nov 1853 in Van Buren Co., IA.   He is the earliest Peterson ancestor for which we have vital information on at this time.   (To be Added)   | Return to Top |     Roberts . . . William Roberts:   William Roberts, the progenitor of this American Roberts Family, was born about 1620 (a later date seems more likely) in Glassenbury, England.   He came to Maryland (MD), prior to 1680.   Five successive generations were born and raised in MD.   William H. Roberts, who was born about 1797 in MD, would move his family, including all seven of his children to Indiana (IN).   Two of his grandsons would eventually move their families to South Dakota (SD) Territory just prior to statehood.   Much is known about the family in IN, SD and subsequently.   Our major research will be focused on MD in the future.   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Roberts   | Return to Top |     Stevens . . . Roger Stevens:   He was born about 1700 in England.   Early information and records document his son, Roger Stevens Sr., and grandson, Roger Stevens Jr. well.   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Stevens   | Return to Top |     Townsend . . . Charles Townsend:   He was born in 1739.   This Tree shows how much work we have to do to establish an American Progenitor, with a credible road map yet to be established.   And, hopefully, to document the alledged descent from Lord Townshend (source of the taxes which lead to the Boston Tea Party).   Click here to see the Ancestral Tree of Townsend   | Return to Top |
