Introduction
IMPORTANT: Before you start exploring this tree, PLEASE read the notice on our genealogy page, even if you've read it before--it's been revised. You can get there by going to the bottom of this page and selecting the web address beside the little house. You can also get there from any page in the tree by going to the bottom and choosing "Contact", which will take you back to the bottom of this page.

ABOUT THE EAGLESONS

The earliest Eaglesons we know about are James and his wife Susannah Johnston, who immigrated to Canada from Ireland about 1832. We started with a fair amount of information on part of the family, and have been lucky enough to make contact with others who have supplied quite a lot of information on other branches. But there's still a lot we don't know.

This is very much a work in progress. We welcome and encourage additions and corrections from members of the Eagleson family and interested others. We'll be updating frequently, so please come back from time to time.

ABOUT THIS FAMILY TREE

We've included direct descendants of our earliest known Eagleson, spouses of direct descendants (and their other spouses and descendants), and immediate relatives of spouses.

We have chosen to respect privacy by excluding all information about living people except for their names and places in the tree. (We do have a fair bit of such information, and will be happy to help people share it in the right circumstances.) If we aren't sure whether someone is still alive, we have decided to play it safe and exclude the information. If we're reliably informed of the person's death, we'll make the information available.

SOME TIPS ON USING THE TREE

The tree consists of "family cards" and "person sheets". You can start either by clicking "Home card" above (which will take you to the family card for James and Susannah), or by clicking "Surnames" and picking a surname, and then given name, of your choice. We do NOT advise that you start with "Index", as loading the index is a slow process, and getting there through "Surnames" will be much faster.

Navigation through the family cards is pretty self-evident. What may not be quite so obvious is that you can click on the name of either of a couple on a "family card", and get a "person sheet" containing more information about that person (if we have it). The information on the person sheet is usually different for husbands and wives, so you may want to look at both. You can then navigate among the person sheets by clicking names. If you want to go back to the family cards, just go to the bottom of the page and click "Web Family Card".

At the bottom of many person sheets, for the use of those of you who are serious about your genealogy, is a section called "Research Notes", which contains information about conflicting sources and unanswered questions. Any help appreciated.
