The
Ashdown family appears to have originated around Ashdown Forest on the
Sussex Weald in England. It is in an area close to the boundaries
of Sussex, Kent and Surrey and consequently most of the genealogies of
todays Ashdown families can be traced to this small area of southern
England.
This web site is for all Ashdown families and will only be as good as
we make it. Any genealogical or historical information
about
the Ashdown family and it's origins in the UK can be submitted for
inclusion. Any research you have done, details of certificates
you hold, stories and photos of your Ashdowns,
copies or details of wills, parish records, links to your personal web
site or whatever. Permission should be gained prior to submission if
necessary and credits and acknowledgments will be included.
It has been set up as an adjunct to the Rootsweb based
Ashdown-UK Mailing List.
ASHDOWN-UK Mailing List.
