Family Trees & DNA

One of the main aims of the members of the Adamthwaite mailing list has been to reconstruct our family trees to discover how all the Adamthwaite individuals relate to one another. The method used is described on the 'Colour Coding' page. You can use the NAME INDEX to help you find which Family Tree chart should contain your ancestor (this is a pdf file showing all the individuals mentioned in the birth records for the UK, Australia, Canada and USA - you will need to scroll down through all the pages).

We hope that our new DNA Project will help to confirm the accuracy of the trees we have reconstructed - and perhaps help us to understand if and how the different trees are linked.

This section contains charts showing family trees for

Early Adamthwaites in Sedbergh & Ravenstonedale

and also contains family trees for the nine identified lines of Adamthwaites, and links to downloadable JPEG files with charts for each of the lines:
