GEDCOM Trees

To see the full Morry family tree, comprised of some 12000 + individuals please click on the link below which will take you to my Family Tree Maker (FTM) website. This is necessary because FTM provides a certain degree of extra detail that cannot be included in a standard GEDCOM (GEnealogical Data COMmunication) representation of a family tree.

Be forewarned that not everyone in this family tree is a Morry nor even necessarily related to the Morrys by blood. This is the entire database of people I have found to be in some way related to the Morrys by blood and by marriage and includes many side trips down alleys that are likely to be of little interest to those only interested in the main Morry line. Still, it gives some interesting insights into how one small family from rural Devon fanned out over the subsequent 16 generations to most parts of the world.

If you would prefer to narrow in on just one segment of the Morry family line, search through the database from the beginnings of one of the following family trees.

The first in the Morry line of descendants is Gregory Mawry, the man we believe is the sire of this clan. He was married to English Maunder and so, in the nomenclature of the Morey Forum, our clan is called Clan English Maunder.

If you are inclined to explore the patrilineal lineage of Fredris Marion Powdrell Minty, our Scottish grandmother, you might like to start with the birth of James Minto in about 1752.

The file also includes the ancestry of my mother, Evelyn Mary [Wheeler] Morry (Wheeler and Bishop lines) and my wife, Katherine (Jamie) [O'Brien] Morry, O'Brien and Quinlisk lines.

SWEETLAND FAMILY TREE

And now for something completely different! One of the key merchant class families into which the Morrys inter-married in Devon and with whom they had many financial dealings during their early years in Caplin Bay and Ferryland was the Sweetlands. They seem to have arrived in this part of the world about the same time, but the Sweetlands moved on for other parts much sooner than the Morrys. One of their descendants who now lives in Australia (Jolyon Sweetland) has compiled the enclosed abbreviated family tree with some assistance from Kevin Reddigan, Enid O'Brien and myself. Unfortunately, because his tree focuses on the line of immediate descent to him, it doesn't follow the many progeny of the marriage that links the Morrys and Sweetlands: William Sweetland and Priscilla Ann Morry, February 15, 1810, at St. Saviours, in Dartmouth, Devon.
