the Appleby DNA project

Surnames covered in our DNA project:

APPLEBY, APPLEBEE,
APPELBY, APPELBE
plus any other variants

Name Index

The Master Name Index opens as a pdf file and includes the names of all individuals shown on the Family Trees included on this website to date. The list is sorted by surname (all Appleby variants are grouped together) then forename, and as well as known dates of birth and death shows the name of the Family Tree in which each individual appears.
The list currently includes 6,118 individuals; the pdf is 70 pages long.
The name index is updated each time a new tree is added to this website.

HINT!! The Name index contains loads of individuals with the names William Appleby, Thomas Appleby, Elizabeth Appleby and so on. Unless your Appleby ancestor has a distinctive set of forenames, it is usually MUCH easier to search for the name of a known spouse to find which tree your line belongs to.

Index to Family Trees

Click hereto view a pdf showing the latest list of all family trees included on this website - the list is sorted by Region and also indicates which lines have already had a yDNA test carried out by a volunteer descended from the line.

To view the individual pages for the family trees, first click on one of the tabs above for the Region you are interested in, where you will find links to the home pages for each of the trees currently on the website, which hold more information, often with photos or maps, along with a link to a pdf family tree chart for the line.

I am currently working on more trees for the South West Region, London and the Midlands; I also have basic details of a number of smaller trees for Applebys from Essex/Suffolk, ENG which I hope to start working on soon.

But we know that there are many more Appleby lines both in England and the rest of the world ....

So, please help to expand the coverage of the trees on this site by sending me details of YOUR Appleby line.

If you would like your Appleby Family Tree included on this site, please use the Contact Form on the left to discuss the best format in which to submit your tree (GEDCOMs preferred!) I shall continue to reconstruct family trees from census and parish record data, and will add these as they are completed - however, if I have already included YOUR tree, I would welcome all your corrections and additions.
