Branches
The Cory families in America sprang from several men who were among the earliest settlers. Among these were: Giles, John of Southold, John of Roxbury, William, and Thomas. For the most part, they were not related. A second wave of Cory families came from Ireland and England during the Irish immigration from 1830 to 1880. Several members of these first Cory families in America have been identified, ether via DNA and/or parish records, as to their English origins.
Genealogies of each of the branches will be published on this web site as time permits. As new information (additions, corrections, changes) is provided, the societies databases are updated. Please contact the webmaster for latest updates.
