Mary's Genealogy Page
The Avery Family
Descendants of Christopher Avery


 

This is my Great Grandmother, Mary Ella (Avery) Thomas.  She was born in Ledyard, Connecticut December 3, 1847.  Because of the stories my mother used to tell me about her and other ancestors, I became interested in genealogy.  

What I have discovered so far is that the first person in our Avery family history, that I can find, was born in Devon, England in 1550.  So far my research has uncovered 13 generations and 400 years from the time Christopher Avery was born in 1550 and my birth in 1950.

As you visit my pages I hope you will find some links that will help you in your search for your roots.
