Currently there are seven sets of data available
for you to download and use for your own family history research:
1. The Crutchley Family Database
This is a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet containing
data from a number of different sources. It has data relating to
individuals, most of whom I have yet to link to my own family tree.
The data is taken from records of baptisms, burials, marriages, census
returns and family member recollections. A significant number of the records
included are from online sources.
I have collected the large part of the data
myself, but a significant amount has been kindly submitted by people
also researching the Crutchley surname around the World. I have additional data that I will add to the database in the future,
so please visit this site again for updates.
Please also help me to increase the size of the
database by sending me your own data for inclusion. If you have data
to share with other researchers,
please
sign my guest book and let me know. Please leave your e-mail address so
that I can contact you.
2. The Crutchley Family GEDCOM file
GEDCOM is a standard file format used for exchanging
information between genealogy programs. The acronym GEDCOM stands
for GEnealogical Data COMmunications. The Family History Department
of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church -
The Mormons) developed the GEDCOM standard some years ago. You can
use GEDCOM files to transfer information into almost any genealogy
program which supports
the GEDCOM file format.
The GEDCOM file available for download below
contains my entire family tree to date. Over 350 individuals records dating
back as far as 1693. Please download the file, which is provided in GEDCOM
format 5.5, and access it using your own genealogy software.

called Ruth Davis from California. The file is provided in Rich Text
Format (.rtf), which can be viewed with Microsoft Word or other word processing

branch of Ruth's family who are originally from Shenstone, Staffordshire, UK
and various
parts of the USA.
