In 1978, the late Emeritus Professor G. E. Trease of Crediton, Devon produced the document "A Trease Family 1552 - 1978". It was
the culmination of many years of tenacious research and is remarkable in that so much was achieved, even more so as it was without the benefit of computer
and Internet technology. In 1986 he died and after a lapse of five years, research was recommenced by his daughter and her husband who have, over
the course of twenty years, extensively increased the body of knowledge.
This website is dedicated to all contributors to Trease family research over the past years, particularly those mentioned
above without whom the site would not be possible.
The family history covers the male line of UK descendants and ancestors of William Trease who married Martha Uglow in 1797 in St Gennys, Cornwall, England.
The female line of UK descendants and family members who emigrated, whether male or female, are also covered but only up to the children of their marriage. To protect privacy, descendants known to be alive are omitted. As a result, information on some descendants may omit details of their children.
The Research pages give information about other families being researched, some of whom may ultimately be found to be related to William and Martha.
Go to the top menu bar and activate the tab 'PEOPLE' to learn how to find people in the main family tree or other trees being researched.
This history has been created to conserve and communicate what is known about the family, for present and future generations. With that in mind it uses the Internet scripting language known as HTML. Phototographs are held in JPEG format, and a few documents are in GIF format. This ensures that it can be easily read NOW using the web browser on any computer, without the need for any proprietary software, and will be capable of being similarly read for the foreseeable FUTURE (as HTML is an internationally approved Internet standard). It also can be readily copied onto any computer readable medium such as CD, DVD, or memory stick, or whatever will replace them.
