Other Families Allied to Ours

 
These pages are a compilation of my work and that of others. You are welcome to use anything on this page, but be aware that although I have been as careful and accurate as possible, I am not a professional genealogist. I have been working on our genealogy for over 25 years, and started the website in 2005. Some of the lines I have researched myself; some, especially on Rita’s side, we inherited the research of other family members over the past 75 years. Still, the majority of these pages are limited to compilations from published books and what I could find on the internet. The target audience was and remains our family, so the family pages are limited to our own ancestors. This page is different from most: this family is not directly related to us, but is allied through frequent marriages.   HOME

Squire Family Connections

This family is not directly related to us. I include this partial descent list due to the frequent intermarriage with our family. I have left out most of the children, including only those who married into our lines.

UNCONNECTED SQUIRES:

Thomas Squire (born about 1755) married 7822.6.10.6 Anna Ward. She is a sister to all the above Wards who marry Squires, so it is highly likely that this Thomas is also a cousin to the above, but we cannot find the connection.

Ada Ione Squier (born 4 May 1846) who married 122.5 John Blatchley in Wisconsin. Squier is supposed to be a variant of Squire.

Daniel Squier and Diana Ellsworth, the parents of Ada Ione.


I am currently going back through old pages to add sources -- have not completed this one yet, but will eventually
