A reportsby Arthur T. Corey and Thomas Corey
A project was undertaken by the Cory Family
Society to determine the genetic relationships between Cory/Corey
family lines in North America and Britain by analyzing Y-chromosome
markers. We wished to learn whether or not the progenitors:
William of Portsmouth, John of Long Island, and Thomas of Chelmsford
were genetically related. Each had arrived in America during
the period 1635-1645. We also wished to learn where in Britain
the progenitors lived before arriving in America, and to what
current Cory lines in Britain they might be related.

Prepared by Art Corey
All of the New England States
are covered. A number of Southern states had no Cory/Corey
families listed in the 1850 census. Most of the Western
states existed only as territories which did not have a
census until 1860.

new information (additions, corrections, changes) is provided, it will
be published on the Genealogy pages for each of the lines.
