WASHINGTON: Garsdon Branch of the Washington Family (Softcover)

  • 1200


1884. 13p. 

The genealogical information provided in the documents sheds light on the Washington family's lineage and connections. It traces the descendants of George Washington through six generations, illustrating the relationships of the Washingtons buried at Garsdon. The family history includes details about Lawrence Washington of Garsdon, who had four sons, one of whom was the ancestor of George Washington, while another was the progenitor of the Garsdon Washingtons. The absence of the name Manning in Lawrence Washington's genealogy, as supplied by the Heralds College, raises questions about the specific family connections and marriages that led to the Washington lineage.

Moreover, the documents mention the coat of arms changes within the Washington family, from stars and stripes to a red cross flory between four cinquefoils in gold. The significance of these heraldic symbols and their evolution over generations hints at the family's history and potential ties to historical events like the crusades. The description of the coat of arms and its implications, such as a Washington marrying an heiress of Manning, adds layers to the family's narrative and heritage. The genealogical chart provided in the documents offers a visual representation of the Washington family's lineage and relationships, providing a comprehensive overview of their ancestry and connections to Garsdon and beyond.
