Cory Society DNA Project

Reports by Arthur T. Corey and Thomas Corey

A project was undertaken by the Cory Family Society to determine the genetic relationships between Cory/Corey family lines in North America and Britain by analyzing Y-chromosome markers. We wished to learn whether or not the progenitors: William of Portsmouth, John of Long Island, and Thomas of Chelmsford were genetically related. Each had arrived in America during the period 1635-1645. We also wished to learn where in Britain the progenitors lived before arriving in America, and to what current Cory lines in Britain they might be related.

1850 Census On Line

Prepared by Art Corey

All of the New England States are covered. A number of Southern states had no Cory/Corey families listed in the 1850 census. Most of the Western states existed only as territories which did not have a census until 1860.

Genealogies

Genealogies of each of the branches will be published on this web site as time permits. I have not been able to publish new information for five years.  As new information (additions, corrections, changes) is provided, I have updated our Society Databases.  Please contact the webmaster for latestest updates.
