| Genealogy of the Simpson Family |
In recent years I have become increasingly interested in the history of both my own and Helen's families. (My Uncle Donald, who provided a wealth of information about the Simpson side, described it as a sure sign of growing old!).
Some of the principal names and locations in our ancestry are:
| Names | Locations |
|---|---|
| Simpson and Gordon | Banf and Strathdon areas of Scotland |
| Sutton and Mortimer | West Riding of Yorkshire |
| Harold | Liverpool and West Indies |
| Goodall and Cottrell | Liverpool, Birkenhead & Knaresborough |
| Parsons, Eeley and Freeborn | Oxfordshire |
There are now three ways to view the Simpson Family Tree:
| As HTML Pages (Updated 2008-05-29) | As a Java Applet (Updated 2008-12-01) |
|---|---|
|
Part of our family tree can be viewed in detail starting from the list
of SURNAMES or the index of PERSONS included here. (This is only about a fifth of the family members in our database and just includes Judith's direct ancestors and their immediate family. Dates and other details have been excluded for people still living.) |
Alternatively if your browser supports Java, click on
TREE to load a Dynamic Family Tree.
(Takes about a minute to download). (This contains the complete database but again dates and other details have been excluded for people still living.) |
| Experimental Tree using Ratcatchers2Royalty (Beta 4) (Updated 2009-04-13) | |
| This tree has been prepared using the Beta 4 release of the
new Family Tree Publisher program from
Ratcatchers2Royalty.
Click HERE to view the tree in this format. N.B. The tree will open in a new browser window, or a new tab if your browser supports tabbed browsing. Close this window or tab when you have finished viewing the tree, to return here. (Like the HTML pages, this tree includes only about a fifth of the family members in our database and just includes Judith's direct ancestors and their immediate family. Dates and other details have been excluded for people still living.) | |
Some of our more interesting ancestors are:
| Name | Location |
|---|---|
| William Capernicus Harold | St Vincent in the West Indies |
| Walter & Ellen Freeborn | Butcher in St.Clements, Oxford |
| (Watch this space for more!) | |
We are always interested in sharing information with anyone else having links to any of these families.
