Introduction
The object of this free space page is for reference, study and further information on the surnames related to the Stephenson family. Where the profile pages in Wikitree focus on the individual, this page seeks to group the direct ancestors associated with a given name, group them as a generational family, and provide any background on that family.
Below is a listing of the surnames associated with the direct ancestry of our family. Each paragraph is started by the surname, and shows further detail of the surname associated with our family, its origins, meaning and our family associated with the individual family names. This page links from My ahnentafel chart page.
For each surname, you will find information on the family line from which we descend, the surname origin, surname type (see below), the meaning of the surname, any alternate spellings, our immigrant ancestor associated with the surname, where they immigrated from, our earliest known ancestor of this surname, the known family line, The connection between the Stephenson's and the subject surname, any published genealogies related to this family and allied families associated with the surname. The number following each individual is their ahnentafel number as it relates to me. Each family line has its own unique number for reference as well, and is shown following the surname below.
Our Family Lines
Family lines are alphabetized in the list below. Each individual generational family surname is assigned a unique number as it relates to my ahnentafel chart. The numbers used to reference family lines are generated to track all of the surnames in my family, and the generational family of that surname. That number is used using a few simple rules:
- Your family surname line always begins with the most recent direct ancesteral daughter of the line. You will need to know her ahnentafel number as it relates to you.
- Subtract 1 from her number and divide by 2. This will give you her child's ahnentafel number as it relates to you.
- Add 1 to the number. This is the family line number.
Even easier, if you know the child's ahnentafel number, just add 1 to it. Now you know what number to apply to his/her mother's surname/family line.
The following numbers constitute generations one through six of my family, to my 3rd great grandparents for a total of 32 family lines. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31 and 32.
My seventh generation ancestors (4th great grandparents) are family lines 33 through 64 for a total of 32 additional family lines. Those that are known are listed here: Logan (33),
