I'm overwhelmed at how much information I've been able to cobble together over the past month or so. From my children, I've been able to create a family tree that goes back six generations - or seven if you include James Sutherland's parents.
Below is the descendency list of James Sutherland, based on the information I have gathered. There are still a lot of gaps. For example, I would like to look for information about each of James and Catherine's children. I know a couple of them died young and I'm not sure if I can get information about them - Statutory records started in 1855 which means after that date births, deaths and marriages were legally required to be registered. Before then, particularly in the case of deaths, there was a cost involved, so only those prepared to pay had the details registered.
Anyway, I'm pretty proud of the information I've gathered so far....

There are a few gaps but mainly to do with dates. I'm ashamed to say I can never remember my nephews' ages. I'm sure my mum will help fill in some of these.
