If you know of a useful Tucker family tree or web site please send me the link, with suggestions for wording of the entry.
Email it to rtx at cox dot net, but PLEASE include the words "Tucker family trees" in the subject or I may not even notice it. I get swamped.
You can also tell me if you know of a Tucker DNA project kit number whose ancestors are listed in one of the trees. I will link the kit number to the correct page in the tree IF you tell me the page to link to.
I am hosting this page as a resource for Tuckers. (Several Thrifts and Tuckers intermarried in Dinwiddie Co, VA and Northampton Co, NC.) The motivation is that there are MANY Tucker family trees on the web with incorrect information, and this incorrect info gets copied and spreads like a virus on the net. The family trees listed here should be as accurate as possible.
THE BEST WAY TO COUNTER INCORRECT INFO IS TO MAKE THE CORRECT INFORMATION FREELY AND PROMINENTLY AVAILABLE. That's the goal here.
It is too much to expect that a family tree be error-free, but I hope that the owners of the trees listed here will be receptive to errors being pointed out, and will correct the errors if good documentation is provided to the owner. If there is disagreement, that would be good to discuss on the Tucker Yahoo list OR one of the forums that are open to view by the public.
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TUCKERS/messages (subscribers only, but still an excellent resource)
http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.tucker/mb.ashx
http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/latest.cgi?tucker
If there are a significant number of errors and the owners are not cooperative, the listing can be removed.
Links in these lists should open in a new browser window.
Trees are generally listed according to the earliest ancestor in the region of their main focus. Trees may be listed more than once.
If your tree is listed here, please tell me if you'd like the listing info changed or deleted.
Some contacts are listed here so that you can supply new information or corrections to the trees' owners. Contacts will only be listed here if the trees' owners themselves request it. (But you can also go to the site to look for the contact.)
This listing is in no way associated with the Tucker DNA Project. However, you are strongly encouraged to participate!
The DNA Project lists several Tucker lines that don't yet show up on this page: Tucker DNA Project Background. Look there for specific lineages for each 'kit number' listed here.
I have included links to the lineages for many of the groups of the Tucker DNA project, in order to highlight the fact that publicly accessible family trees for these lines are sorely lacking.
Eventually it would be GREAT to prepare one authoritative online family tree for each line, complete with documentation and sources of info, for all ancestors before a certain point, e.g. before 1800.
[ http://tooker.org/files/ is not quite there, but has a closely related goal.]
