April 2024 update:
I have spent the past four months researching the individuals of one specific generation. I have now re-written most of the biographical sketches of the ancestors of the 15th generation, as well as some from the 13th and 14th generation. Click Genealogical Tables to view the ancestors of Basil Albert Welty, Mary Lou Disbrow, Joseph Henry Fishel, and Mildred Leone Marrison.
Click the map above to open a Google Map which shows the primary residences of each ancestor. If you're using a mobile device, the map works best in a web browser, as opposed to in the Google Maps app (the Google Maps app does not have the full functionality of Google Maps in a web browser because it removes the description of each location, which contain links to each ancestor). For mobile users, long-press the picture of the map and select "Open" or "Open in a New Tab".
Because most of these individuals lived in multiple locations, I have attempted to select one village, town, or city in which they spent the greatest portion of their life. In some instances, there was no one specific location that they spent most of their lives, so I selected the town in which they spent the last portion of their life. If I had placed a pin in every known location of every known ancestor, the map would probably become too cluttered to be meaningful.
Immigrant ancestors (those who left a location in Europe and relocated to a colony in the Americas) will be associated with three or more locations. They will be found in their originating town, and in the "ship" icon in the middle of the North Atlantic Ocean, and in a town in one of the colonies or states. The colors of the pins within the map roughly correspond to the colors used in the four genealogical tables (green, teal, turquoise, and blue). A black-colored pin indicates that individuals from different ancestral lines resided within that town.
Most of the individuals in this book were from England, Wales, Scotland, Ireland, France, the Netherlands, Germany, and elsewhere in Europe. The immigrant ancestors settled in Ontario and New Brunswick, Canada, as well as Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Delaware, Virginia, and North Carolina. Later, their descendants migrated to Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, Iowa, and Kansas.
