Dave - Author & Creator

This project commenced in 1989, before databases were readily available, and is far too large to convert into or similar format. The text data is in "Families" with each Family being in one UK geographical area. You will find references in the text to "SCH" or "SCH lists" because when I started this study, all UK Birth, Marriage, and Death records were kept at St Catherines House in London. These official records are now held in the Family Record Office.

Dave's tree is (predictably) in Family 1, My Family which starts at Exton, Rutland, with THOMAS born c1760, but I don't know where he was born, or who his parents were. I misguidedly thought that we Cunningtons were a small family, and a one name study would enable me to locate him!

Many years later I am no nearer to finding him, despite having identified in excess of 5000 males in the UK!

I retired from updating this page and in January 2022 handed it all over to Cathy Cunnington. She is slowly updating the website to HTML 5.

Finally, this information is all that I have. I do not possess any other files, everything has been uploaded to the site, therefore if what you are seeking is not here, I do not have it! All this information is correct to the best of my knowledge, however in putting things together I have often made assumptions which may or may not be correct - please tell Cathy if you are aware of any incorrect information!

My grateful thanks go to all who have contributed over the years to the data to be found here, and the list of names is too long to keep updating! You know who you are, and can see your data appearing on the site. Thankyou.
