Strangways-Towneley Tree

Covers members of the British Peerage and Landed Gentry from the Middle Ages to the 20th century starting from the Strangeway / Strangways and the Towneley family pedigrees. You can see a simple list of surnames included here - A-L and M-Z

This tree is a single, large linked family tree where all the families are connected - by normal descendancy or by marriage - at some point in their history. This linking includes earlier generations of the linked family.

Because these marriages go back as far as the 1300’s the extended tree spreads across many of the famous families of Britain. This also means that the majority of pedigrees have been published already and are probably available on other web sites. However there are also extra entries that have been added directly and do not appear on any of the major genealogy web sites.

Download the complete family tree as at 28-Jul-2009 in a compressed Personal Ancestral File (PAF) format here.. Note: this file is over 19Mb.

The PAF format is a standard format used by the PAF genealogy software that is available without charge from FamilySearch.org. If you have other genealogy software and it cannot accept PAF format records then there is a version available in Gedcom format instead. This is a widely used format for exchanging family trees - but there are differences in the way that it is processed by different software packages so some detail may “get lost in translation”.

Download above family tree file as a compressed Gedcom here.. soon!
