The Cree Family of Elizabeth, New Jersey

INTRODUCTION


I have been researching my Cree family on and off since 1976, most seriously since 1987.

In the late 1980s, I began compiling a genealogy of the descendants of my ancestor Joseph Cree, who lived in Elizabeth, New Jersey, and died in 1798. I plan to publish this genealogy when I am "finished" with it. In the meantime, I am making a draft of the first three generations available on these pages. It is my hope that it will help others trace their ancestry and that they will contact me to be added to my work.

The version posted here contains only a small portion of the information I have compiled. My full draft features footnotes which indicate the sources of all data and is "complete" through the Fourth and part of the Fifth Generations. Additionally, I have traced many lines further, some to the present date. For example, if the child of a Third Generation family is shown with a four digit number to the left, that indicates a full entry for that child and his/her family in the Fourth Generation section of my full draft.

Two final points to keep in mind:

1) Please send me all additions or corrections for inclusion in the next revision.

2) I have devoted much time and effort to this genealogy, so if you find useful information therein, please include a citation to the source.
