WELCOME TO THE DAVIES FAMILY HISTORY WEBSITE 2012 - Database Section
This, the main section of the website, now uses webtrees to provide access to the Family History Database, which now contains details on over 12,000 individuals, representing up to eleven generations of my ancestors and their spouses' families and descendants, from the early 1600's to the present day. Until the end of the 19th century, the majority were living in Glamorgan and Cumberland, with some in Oxfordshire and Warwickshire. But descendants from the early 20th century onwards are spread throughout the world. Using webtrees, you may access this data in a variety of ways, produce lists, charts and reports, and download information in GEDCOM or other format for inclusion in your own Family History files. Access to information on the living is restricted to members of the extended family, who may request a user account.

OTHER WEBSITES CLOSELY LINKED TO THIS ONE
There are a number of other Family History websites using the same software (webtrees) as this site, or similar (PhpGedView), and having links to our extended family tree:
GLAMORGAN LOVELUCK WEBSITE
The LOVELUCK family of Glamorgan is linked to our DAVIES and POWELL families through a number of different marriages. The Glamorgan LOVELUCKs have been extensively researched by James Loveluck of Meylan in France, and he has made them the subject of a very impressive website. James uses PhpGedView for his database section, so you may SEARCH THE GLAMORGAN LOVELUCK FAMILY DATABASE in just the same way as you can search the database on this site. James and I are attempting to coordinate our efforts and at many points in this website you will find direct links to individuals and families on James' website for whom he holds more comprehensive data than I do; similarly, on James' site you will find links to individuals and families on mine.
HARVEY FAMILY HISTORY WEBSITE
The HARVEY family of Wivenhoe in Essex, were a family of shipbuilders, some of whom emigrated to Melbourne, Australia. Our CHESSELL cousins' great grandfather Charles Bartholomew CHESSELL was also a shipbuilder who emigrated to Melbourne, Australia. Not surprising then that Charles' eldest son Charles married a HARVEY - Mary Ann HARVEY. Their son David Lawford CHESSELL married my father's sister Annie DAVIES. It was in checking out this connection a few years ago that I discovered the website of Ray HARVEY, the database section of which uses PhpGedView. Sadly, Ray died in 2008, but his son Leigh, although not a geanealogist, is determined to keep Ray's site, with it's 21,000 individual database, up and running in memory of his father. You can SEARCH THE HARVEY FAMILY DATABASE in just the same way as you can search the database on this site.
CUMBERLAND GRAHAM WEBSITE
The GRAHAM family who were the ancestors of Joan Dunmore, originally of Hexham, Northumberland, have several links to our Cumberland BROUGH family, in particular via the SPARK family of Edderside, Holme Cultram. Joan's Graham Family Genealogy Website uses PhpGedView so you may SEARCH THE GRAHAM FAMILY DATABASE in just the same way as you can search the database on this site.
