Welcome to my Family History and Genealogy site. My mother, Lucille Flanery Gregory
took up genealogy research, combining information and research from other family
members in the early
1990's. After her death in 1995 I decided to continue her research and got bit by the
"genealogy bug" and have continued to this day to research our family lines.
More people than I could name here have also helped greatly in putting this family history to
this site.
________________________________________________________________________________________________
These Families descended from John Gregory of Missouri in the
mid 1800's.
Gregory family history - These generations of Gregory's lived in Missouri,
Texas, Oklahoma, Oregon, California, Colorado and Ohio.
John Gregory was born in Virginia but witnessed the early history of the state
of Missouri where he built a farm and raised a family.
Most of the families listed here are descended from his son Alexander, although
research is still in progress on the other children of John and Frances as well
as Alexander.
Flanery, Flannery or O'Flannery Family
These Families descended from Dan O'Flannery of Tipperary
County Ireland. This family belonged to the Munster Clan.
This family history site is of Daniel Flannery's descendants who came to America
to escape the potato famine in the mid 1800's.
The earliest record found so far of their children in America is of son Daniel's
marriage in Plainville, Ohio in 1856. Later records show them in Wisconsin and
Missouri.
These Mink Families descended from William and Elizabeth
Mink.
Descendants of William Mink and Elizabeth Roebuck and their children - Rufus,
Calem, Thompson, John B., Hiram, Amos William, Daniel, Harvey, James, Jane,
Martha, Mary, Sarah, William Joseph .
These Families descended from Jan
(John) Novak who emigrated from Bohemia in the 1800's.
John Novak brought his family to America in the late 1860's. He farmed and
raised a family in the Belleville, Kansas area in the latter 1800's.
Richison Family descended from George Washington Richison
1822-1905
(Click here for Photos)
George Washington Richison was born in 1822. Most sources have him
born in North Carolina or Kentucky. He probably grew up in the Appalachian
Mountain area between North Carolina and Kentucky.
George and Sarah Marade Barrow raised 10 children. They lived in Missouri, Arkansas,
Texas, the Indian Territory and Oklahoma and died after the turn of the century.
George traded goods with the Choctaw Indians and was known to have been in their
villages and knew of some of their tribal ways and healing medicines.
Descendants of Galen Bullen Fiske & his
son Lewis Sherban Fiske, a Civil War Veteran.
This site
includes Fisk surnames.
Galen Fiske was descended from Lord
Symond FISKE, born about 1399 in Stadhaugh, Laxfield, Suffolk, England.
