Welcome to our Genealogy website.

I have been helping my mother research our family history since September 1997. We have been lucky that our ancestors have hailed mainly from Essex, England and that the local library holds many of the Essex parish records on microfiche. The majority of the information gained so far is from this source.

The surnames that I am most interested in are WRIGHT, SAVILL, MURRELL, BURLES, BRETT, GRIGGS and FRENCH from Essex , WILLINGALE  and STEIN (from Liverpool) , although many other surnames feature on these pages.

On the following pages people who are living have most of their details hidden. If you think you are related, please get in touch, and we can give you access to more details of your particular branch of the family tree.

For a full rundown on the WILLINGALE family name, please see the Willingale Family Society website.

To view details of the people in the tree, use either the Search boxes top left, or the advanced saearch option, also top left, which allows you to filter your search by places and dates as well as names. For more details on how the site works, follow the FAQ link, bottom left.
