Ralf Reveley, my big brother, began our family research in the 1970s with the name of one cousin in Arkansas, and managed to locate almost our entire Reveley line in America when he published his book in 1987. His goal was to trace the family in Cumberland, and connect them to the Reveleys in Northumberland, but he died before he had a chance. Thanks to the internet I have done this for him, and in the process have met a wonderful extended family, and developed the same desire Ralf had to find and connect us all.
This website is for all of our clan who would like to share family information and help unite us all into one big family tree, all the way back to Northumberland in the Middle Ages. I've posted that tree as it appears in Burke's Peerage.
The website is under construction, and I am slowly creating an album to introduce every branch and twig of the families that I have in my files. If you would like to be included, please email me at sarah_reveley@att.net and I will add your family. If you already have a website, send me the URL so I can post it. If not, try creating your own on Tribal Pages, it's easy!
We have two mailing lists, please join us.
