Project Goals
The Stokesbury surname gene project has been initiated to achieve the following goals:
1. To identify related lines within the United States, and around the world, including all the variant spellings such as Stokesbury, Stokesberry, Stokesbary, Stretchberry, Stotesbury, Stutchbury, Stuchbury, Stooksbury, Stookesberry. (Suffix doesn't really have that much importance—can be bury, berry, bary and sometimes bery and burry!)
2. To help determine the time frame for the common ancestors.
3. To help prove or disprove some of the common family legends that have been handed down through the generations.
4. To provide new directions for our family history research.
