As a family, we are fortunate to have inherited an extensive family tree, produced in the mid-19th century by one of our forebears, Richard Oke Millett. This started me on this quest to learn more about our family tree and in doing so, left me many more questions that I have found answers to.
Our family can be traced back to 16th century Marazion in Cornwall, and it is this line this website focuses on. Where there is an interesting story to tell, I do take an occasional foray to some ancestors who are one or two steps away from this line, and no doubt these stories will grow in number.
In addition to our family tree, I plan to provide information to anyone looking to discover their ancestry, primarily in the UK. Good luck and good hunting!
