Merrifield Ancestors & Kin

This site is the outgrowth of the research collected on my collateral Merrifield ancestors and kinships that are descended of Samuel Merrifield I who came to colonial America in 1747 and settled in western Virginia. Many of his descendants migrated to the states of Kentucky, Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska, Ohio and Texas.

About this site...

All pages can be accessed from the Jump Menus on each page of this site.

I have devoted a page to the "Virginia/ West Virginia Merrifields" who hold an honored place in the Daughters of the American Revolution Patriot Index.

The Texas By-Way-of-Kentucky page is dedicated to the branch of Merrifields who are the descendants of Alexander Merrifield. Alexander left Virginia to settle in Kentucky, however, his eldest son, John, left Kentucky and was instrumental in the founding of Dallas, Texas.

A New England Merrifields page has been include. No direct connection from the Virginia line to this line has yet to be discovered. However, many erroneous connections have been attributed. These Merrifields are not included in my database.

There is an "Ancestors and Cousins" page where you can view my relationship to all my collateral Merrifield ancestors and cousins, possibly even yourself.

There are census image pages for both the West Virginia Merrifields and the Texas Merrifields where you can view numerous images. Comprehensive details of many more censuses can be found in the Notes portion of nearly each individual in my Surname Database.

The information contained in my database of over 1000 names has been derived in great part from historical documents as well as numerous censuses, and the generous contribution of several Merrifield cousins.

To access the database, click here or on the SURNAME DATABASE link in the Jump Menu on any page. From there you will be able to access the Surname List, Name Index or go straight to the descendants from where you can view more information. To see source information, click on the numbers next to an individual's name.

As with any genealogy research, this is a work-in-progress and I will continue to update the database as new information comes to light. If you are a relative and/or have information you would like to contribute, please click here to Email Me.

Please know that any omissions are not intentional but simply a matter of not having found the information.
